Unsaid Conversations

I spoke with Sarah Speers, a wellness coach that uses reiki and Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) to support healing in food, eating & body issues. Working for years as a licensed therapist, she started to feel there was a missing link to the healing process.

She started learning about energy healing (EFT, Reiki, Emotion Code), which opened up a new way to access and heal trauma. Now she offers coaching and support to women on their journey to healing from food, eating and body issues. Sarah offers coaching and energy healing that shifts a client’s control over food and eating, towards a more relaxed mindset towards food that promotes self-love, health and self-confidence. Through energy healing modalities, Sarah guides clients to release trauma and move through difficult wounds. For this conversation, we spoke about the process of finding food freedom after years of experiencing food and body issues. 

Many of the woman Sarah works with have some form of eating disorder. Due to messaging from the society and /or family, certain wounds and trauma form, which sometimes exhibit themselves through food and body issues. Sarah walks through some of the work she does and how to address food/body issues through energy work.

I spoke with Jess, a dancer, coach and author, on how to navigate the creative process. Her love of dancing is a thread throughout the journey of becoming a coach and an author.  She speaks about her process on becoming a creativity coach, creating Dance With This book, and supporting others access their creativity through Creative Club. 

Growing up, Jess trained as a professional dancer and saw dance as her path in life. Yet a few things didn’t feel right and she moved away from dance in order to focus on healing her own body and learning more about herself. After having worked as a wellness coach, she came full circle as her coaching work shifted to focus on creativity and dance.

She found her unique voice by infusing her love of dance into creativity coaching in a way no one else could. Even creating a book called ‘Dance with this book’ , all about dancing alone in your room. Now, Jess continues to produce dance videos of herself dancing alone in her room while also providing guidance and support to creative individuals.

I spoke with Jarrod Mayer, a sound and kundalini practitioner and teacher. It was interesting to learn about his journey into using sound as a therapeutic tool.

Jarrod creates unique sound experiences such as sound baths, to take people on a journey within themselves in order to heal and restore balance to their physical and emotional well-being. He started his journey into sound through experiencing the power of Kundalini and then diving deeper into the kinds of sounds that can produce therapeutic effects. Having always enjoyed playing music, he explored a number of instruments and sounds as he started to learn more about the use of sound for healing.

We discussed how certain sounds can produce very powerful effects on the mind and body, as well as how certain sounds be very uncomfortable to listen to for some people, but still provide a profound therapeutic effect.
