The Healers Café

Hi, it's Manon Bolliger (facilitator and retired naturopath with 30+ years of practice) and I want to welcome you to the Healers Cafe. I am so excited to be doing this series of interviews and what I'll be doing is, is asking all kinds of healthcare practitioners, doctors, healers of all types, to really share with all of you their experience, why they became healers, what called them what they think about this being a healer thing. Is it, a thing? Who's really healing in this, what they've experienced from their their interaction with clients and patients and what the takeaways and understanding of what the process of healing is all about and the process of life. So that's the essence of what I'm doing. I'm hoping that this will serve also for patients that have issues and are looking for different ways of approaching it. * De-Registered, revoked & retired after 30+ years of practice.

In this episode of The Healers Café, Manon Bolliger, FCAH, CBHT (facilitator and retired naturopath with 30+ years of practice) speaks with Kendra Dahlstrom about her journey through unrealized trauma to healing body, mind, and soul.

Highlights from today's episode include:

 

Kendra Dahlstrom 

Because I will say that, you know, 85 to 90% of people that tend to end up in trafficking systems have been molested and abused and tend to be victims of sexual harassment. And so, it's just this snowball effect of where you start to think, okay, is, is it a product of my past? Or is there something bigger going on here.

 

Kendra Dahlstrom 

You know, it's very common of any kind of abuse, it doesn't have to be trafficking, or it doesn't have to be sexual abuse, just any kind of abuse is that you're not seen, and you're not heard. And that has been my story.

 

Kendra Dahlstrom

So, I feel like that's a huge component to healing because a lot of times, there's things we need to hear from others on the other side, or even confirmation of things that have happened in our lives that sometimes I'll see that we didn't even know we needed confirmation, but just getting that confirmation can be really healing.  

 

ABOUT KENDRA DAHLSTROM:

Kendra helps professional women who feel spiritually disconnected shine their light brighter. Their lifestyle transforms into one of peace and empowerment through deep divine connection. They discover this through a clear pathway I help them design to live in true alignment with their highest purpose and potential.

Kendra is the founder of SoulStar Awakening, a spiritual platform developed to help support busy working women to reconnect with divine love, their higher self, and inner wisdom through deep yet practical, bite-size rituals and healing treatments proven to brighten their light. Kendra is a Human Design Manifestor and spiritual master healer, which drives her passion for spiritual connectedness and ability to catalyze healing in others.

Kendra Dahlstrom has been a successful leader in corporate for over 23 years, supporting her clients to stay connected to their wisdom, grounded in their strength, and creative in their pursuits of what aligns with their highest purpose and self. Kendra’s Soul Star Awakening has been a gift to the consciousness movement but was born out of severe trauma and suffering. She is a survivor of sex trafficking, ritual abuse, narcissistic abuse, and the hands of corrupt leadership. Her emotional, mental, physical, and spiritual healing took nearly three decades, and her learnings from her long suffering now inform her unique approach. Her mission is to support women in releasing their long-suffering through connection with God and self to experience true spiritual sovereignty.

She speaks worldwide about how to awaken and activate the Soul Star chakra, which is the key she believes; to ignite healing within.

Core purpose/passion: My mission is to support women in releasing their long-suffering through connection with God and self to experience true spiritual sovereignty.  I do this by helping professional women who feel spiritually disconnected shine their light brighter.

In this episode of The Healers Café, Manon Bolliger, FCAH, CBHT (facilitator and retired naturopath with 30+ years of practice) speaks with Rebecca Kase about her work with EMDR to help clients feel and release stored trauma.

Highlights from today's episode include:

Rebecca Kase  02:31

I think that one of my biggest lessons is, you have to feel to heal. And, you know, in our Western society, we get so infatuated with nervous system hacks, and here's a magic pill, or here's a magical intervention, and it'll fix this right away. And that's, that's just not how our neurobiology works.

 

Rebecca Kase 

And that's kind of the heart of trauma and PTSD and trauma responses is that your nervous system was overwhelmed. And it hasn't been able to really digest the experience. And so, the past remains the present.

 

Rebecca Kase 

So, in EMDR, we focus on we identify the specific memories that are correlated with the symptoms that you're really wanting to address in therapy. And there's a process that you go through with your therapist to kind of uncover some of those memories.

 

ABOUT REBECCA KASE:

Rebecca Kase is a force of nature. Her warmth and authenticity make her a natural teacher and leader. She is an LCSW, yoga instructor, and EMDR trainer and consultant. Rebecca owns Kase &  CO, an EMDR training and consultation business. Her expertise in polyvagal theory and supporting therapists to become more resilient makes her lectures refreshingly informative and dynamically engaging.

Rebecca lives in Washington state with her husband and four fur babies.

Core purpose/passion: Trauma healing and befriending the nervous system. I love helping people learn how to unlock and harness the healing power of the nervous system on their life journey. I incorporate EMDR, yoga, mindfulness, and polyvagal theory into my clinical work- as they are all amazing techniques for working with our neurobiology.

In this episode of The Healers Café, Manon Bolliger, FCAH, CBHT (facilitator and retired naturopath with 30+ years of practice) speaks with Annelise Piers on her expertise in Yin Yoga and breath work to release stressors from the body and mind. 

For the transcript and full story go to: https://www.drmanonbolliger.com/Annelise-Piers

 

Highlights from today's episode include:

Annelise Piers 

Yin, it somehow, it's a more passive practice, you hold a pose for about three minutes, sometimes five, but the good news is most of the poses are on the mat. So, it's not like you're standing up in the air you know engaging muscle that is not yin. Yin is focused on the deeper connective tissues.

Annelise Piers 

What I like about a yin breath is that we’re not forcing, we're not controlling, we're not counting, holding, none of the above. Yin is about allowing, it's about accepting.

Annelise Piers 

So, you show up on your mat, your mat can be your chair, your mat can be you standing in the supermarket line. And just start with your breath. Even if you're just exhaling longer, if that's the biggest hack, I can give anybody.

 

ABOUT ANNELISE PIERS:

Annelise Piers specializes in physical and emotional healing, using a combination of Yin Yoga, essential oils and neuro-linguistic programming; metaphor therapy. At MyYogaTeacher, she teaches Yin, Hatha, Pranayama & breathing, and meditation.  She is a qualified Hatha and Yin yoga teacher with Yoga Alliance USA, and licensed under co-founder Dr. Richard Bandler and the Society of Neuro-Linguistic Programming; USA UK

Core purpose/passion: I absolutely LOVE learning, diving deep into the subject of physical and mental wellbeing and sharing that with whoever will listen?
