Unlocking the Secrets of Somatic Healing with Angel Howard

In this episode of the Samantha Parker Show, Samantha sits down with Angel Howard, founder of Wild Heart Expressive, host of the Upshift podcast, and author of 'Issues in Your Tissues.' Angel delves into the core concepts of her book, explaining how our bodies store emotions and how somatic movement therapy can help release them. The conversation navigates through her journey from corporate America to holistic healing, her struggles with personal trauma, and how somatic work has helped her regain trust and balance in life. The discussion also touches upon the impact of past experiences on our physical well-being and provides practical advice for engaging in somatic practices. Angel also shares exciting news about her new PBS show 'Women Our Age' and an upcoming retreat in Sedona, Arizona.
