Many of us have had the experience of symptoms in our body that our Western medicine and doctors don’t always have answers to. And sometimes symptoms are messengers telling us to listen to our bodies. Urging us to reconnect our body and spirit before physical healing can occur. In this episode, I have a wonderful conversation with Amy Stein, Herbalist and Trauma-Informed Breathwork Facilitator, about how to listen to those messages, advocate for ourselves, and connect to our inner wisdom on our healing journeys.

Amy shares her story of the bodily pain symptoms she would experience as a child that nobody could understand. At the time nobody understood what it meant to be highly sensitive and empathic, so it was a long journey to learn that external stimuli were manifesting physically in her body. Amy and I talk about starting healing with breathwork and we explore the value of healthy food, connecting with nature, and how to really hear the messages our bodies send us.
About Amy Stein
Amy's journey began about 12 years ago when her body's message grew increasingly loud and unavoidable. She had always had stomachaches and headaches as a child but the message that was given to her by others was that she was too "sensitive" and was affected by too many things. At the time Amy didn't know what this meant and wouldn't discover that she was Highly Sensitive and an Empath until further in her healing journey. This is when many of these sensations increased in intensity and duration and she was unable to ignore them anymore.
She went the traditional route for healing but nothing seemed to work and she became sicker and sicker. It took some time but she found her way to Plant Medicine and she found some relief. Then she discovered Energy Medicine a few years later and more of the puzzle pieces fell into place. She began to re-connect her Body and Mind and add in the missing component of Spirit. This then led to the final piece of the trauma-informed breathwork training. This piece allowed her to remember that her body was designed to heal and that you can't heal by yourself, you need to be supported in the process to allow for the healing to occur.
Through her own healing and health journey she decided to begin helping others to reconnect to their own inner wisdom. She realized that we all have the ability to live via our intuition-we simply need to trust it.
