  • Your Body is Telling a Story. Are You Listening? w/Christopher Lee Maher on True Body Intelligence
    Oct 15 2025
    What does a retired US Navy SEAL know about trauma that most of us don't? He knows it’s not just in your mind, it's stored in your very cells, dictating everything from your chronic pain to your life choices. In this profound episode, we welcome Christopher Lee Maher, a best-selling author and holistic wellness pioneer. Christopher takes us on his incredible journey from the pinnacle of elite physical performance to a breaking point of chronic pain, dimmed vision, and hearing loss. Rejecting the conventional medical path, he embarked on a decades-long quest that fused the precision of Western science with the wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Taoist practices. He emerged with a groundbreaking system called True Body Intelligence. Christopher reveals how unresolved emotional events, from childhood and even past generations, create physical "boulders, stones, and pebbles" of tension in our bodies. He explains the powerful link between your specific pains and your personal history, and provides a clear pathway to not just manage symptoms, but to achieve a state of "neutrality", which he describes as the first stage of enlightenment. Key Topics Discussed: The shocking physical breakdown Christopher experienced as an elite athlete and Navy SEAL. Why pain and trauma often manifest on one specific side of the body (and what it means). The "True Body Intelligence" method: A fusion of physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual healing. How to move from a state of chronic stress and pain to a state of "neutrality." Understanding the "boulders, stones, and pebbles" of stored tension in your body. The role of eccentric contractions and meridian work in releasing deep-seated trauma. An introduction to B.E.S.T. (Bio-Energetic Self-Transformational Sequences) exercises to restore energy and reduce tension daily. Why achieving physical neutrality is the foundation for a quiet mind, grounded emotions, and making better life decisions.

    • Simple, practical ways to calm your nervous system so fear doesn’t take the wheel.

    By the end of this episode, you’ll have tools to move forward with fear riding shotgun, not in control, so you can step into your next chapter with more ease, courage, and clarity.

  • Finding Healing Through Forest Therapy with Beth Mowry
    Sep 10 2025

    In this episode of the Soul Aligned Self Care Podcast, I sit down with Beth Mowry, a certified Forest Therapy Guide and founder of the Awen Center in the Catskills. Beth shares how forest therapy, also known as forest bathing, helps us reconnect to nature, lower stress, boost immunity, and find perspective in our fast-paced, tech-driven world.

    We explore:
    🌲 The difference between a Forest Therapist and a Forest Therapy Guide
    🌲 How spending just two hours in nature can lower blood pressure, reduce cortisol, and improve creativity
    🌲 Why community and connection are at the heart of the Awen Center’s mission
    🌲 How city dwellers can still create meaningful connections with nature
    🌲 The power of rituals, community celebrations, and women’s circles for healing

    Beth also shares the story of Great Great Grandfather Pine, an elder tree on the Awen Center property that holds a deep presence and reminds us of our interconnectedness with the natural world.

    This episode is packed with inspiration on how to create grounding, peace, and belonging through both nature and community.
