Episode 34: Nourishing Ourselves — Why Widening Our Windows of Tolerance Requires Mind-Body-Spirit Nourishment with Syanna Wand

In this jam-packed and very nourishing episode, embodiment coach Syanna Wand and I...

• discuss trauma as a chronic contractive state that doesn't allow for the expansion required to nourish ourselves
• talk about widening our windows of tolerance and how we work with our bodies to do that
• discuss heightened sensitivity (people who feel EVERYTHING) and how interoception can be scary and anxiety-inducing for people who want to feel in their bodies LESS, not more
• talk about feeling into the body when you experience health anxiety
• discuss the need-satisfaction cycle and how we get into habits of compulsively seeking fullness and aren't totally sure how to stop once we begin to complete the need-satisfaction cycle
• have an in-depth discussion about caregivers, attunement needs, and self-sabotage
• talk about nourishment barriers — the blocks we have in place to nourishment because it feels dangerous and how we can move through those with boundary work and safe dialogue
• have a gentle and compassionate discussion about victim mentality as a space of chronic emotional hunger
• explore how identity as belonging and connection intersect with victimhood, illness, and wellness
