Welcome to The Way of the Healer Podcast with Darieth Chisolm, where we delve into the world of plant medicine, consciousness, and healing. In this episode, Darieth is joined by her dear friend Brenda Markstein, a somatic breathwork healer and the owner of Rocas Retreat. Together, they explore the power of somatic breathwork and the importance of creating healing spaces for individuals to connect with their true selves.
Somatic breathwork is all about allowing ourselves to breathe fully and flood our bodies with oxygen, releasing stress and tension. It's a natural and beautiful way to tap into our body's own natural feel-good chemicals, promoting healing and well-being. Brenda shares her journey of creating Rocus Retreat, a sanctuary where healers from around the world can come together and heal in a natural, nurturing environment.
Brenda also discusses her role as an executive producer on Darieth's documentary project, "The Way of the Healer," which showcases courageous women in the field of plant medicine. Through her own healing journey and the creation of Rocus Retreat, Brenda exemplifies the way of a healer - someone who embraces self-love and extends it to others, creating a ripple effect of healing and transformation.

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage
Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
