Focusing: A Practice of Presence & Listening | Serge Prengel
This week, we’re in conversation with therapist and longtime Focusing teacher Serge Prengel about the transformative power of slowing down and listening from the body.Serge is one of those rare people who seem to live from a deeper layer of presence. His work blends Focusing, Somatic Experiencing, Core Energetics, and Polyvagal Theory to support real, embodied change.What stood out for us was how relational this practice is. It brought us into a slower, softer place of deep listening, where we could fully meet each other’s nervous systems.We explore:* What Focusing actually is (and isn’t)* How to feel into what’s “not fully formed yet”* The role of safety and vulnerability in a therapeutic or relational container* Why this is a two-way street: the listener is as active as the talker* How to turn everyday conversations into profound practices of connectionWe also talk about what it means to be in right relationship: with yourself, with others, and with the felt sense of a moment that’s still unfolding.-------Wanna watch this as a video pod?

Miriam guides us into the world of Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT)—a deceptively simple practice where tapping acupressure points while speaking truth can open up big shifts in the body, mind, and heart.It’s part therapy, part ritual, part emotional plumbing.In this episode, we explore:* Why EFT is becoming a popular trauma modality (and how it stacks up to EMDR)* How tapping calms the nervous system and gives stored emotion somewhere to go* Ancestral trauma (your body might be carrying Grandma’s fears!)* What happens when you stop bracing and start releasing------------We make this show with love, laughter, and absolutely no corporate overlords.

Beyond “Normal”: Neurodiversity-Affirming Therapy | Joel Schwartz
This week on the Mind Bod Adventure Pod, we sit down with Dr. Joel Schwartz, a psychologist and one of the early architects of the Neurodiversity-Affirming Therapy movement. Joel is known for speaking truth to systems that pathologize difference — and for offering a way of working with our minds that’s healing, joyful, and radically humane.In this episode, we explore:* Why the “pathology model” of ADHD and autism misses the point* The emotional toll of masking and code-switching to survive* What actually helps when someone is overstimulated (spoiler: not deep breathing)* Reclaiming movement, joy, and the right to stim without shame* An unexpected practice that ends in synchronized swaying and yodel-singing!Joel brings brilliance, humor, and zero tolerance for the rigid norms that ask neurodivergent folks to contort themselves into “acceptable” versions of humanity.Along the way, Tasha reflects on late-diagnosed spectrum-y traits, Jeff gets real about rejection sensitivity, and we all momentarily dissolve into giggles about somatic intelligence and… mosh pits.✨This episode is both a call to arms and a warm hug — a guide to seeing difference not as deficit, but as creative, embodied, meaningful expression.We make this show with love, laughter, and absolutely no corporate overlords.

Learning to Relate with James-Olivia Chu Hillman
