In this episode, Sam and Bri continue exploring a conversation with friend and Pelvic Floor Therapist Dr. Kayleigh. They talk about health class and the shame it implements at a young age, how the world discounts intuitive bodily sensation, and the power of diaphragmatic breathing for strength, healing and resilience. The conversation works around chronic illness and pain as they talk about their own personal experiences while weaving in Dr.Kayleigh's widsom. They discuss the power of meditation for chronic pain, alongside the different areas of the brain that signal pain— how cash-based healthcare practices can ensure a full healing and so much more! For anyone navigating chronic illness, chronic pain, endometriosis, cystitis and UTIs, pelvic floor dysfunction and so much more.. you are not alone.
