39// Why Our Clients Get Such Amazing Results

Why do our clients get such good results? What do we do differently?

Lately, I’ve been getting these questions a LOT. After pondering the answers, I’m here today to share them with you!

Some key things? We don’t use insurance, we invest TIME with our clients, and we get creative!

I’ll go in depth about things we do (or don’t do) and WHY.

But - this isn’t just about what we do. It’s about WHO we do it for.

Tune in to learn what traits clients of Better Belly Therapies have in common and the transformations they’ve gone through!

38// 4 Reasons Saying "I Should" Is Keeping You Sick

This episode, let’s talk about the mental component of health!

By no means is every sickness coming from the mind, but also, the mind - including subconscious processes and emotions - cannot be extricated from ANY experience of the body, be it pain or pleasure, sickness or health, success or failure.

I encourage you to always seek a happier, healthier mindset even as you seek a happier, and healthier, body.

If you haven’t gotten better. If you have spent thousands of dollars trying to find the root cause of your health problems, if you truly want to live a vibrant life and learn new ways to engage with yourself and the world - press in. Listen. Give yourself grace. And KEEP LOOKING.

Don’t stop … Don’t stop… DON’T stop looking for answers.

37// Is Guilt or Shame Holding You Back in Your Health? - with Raina LaGrand, LMSW, MPH, CYT

Joining me on the podcast today is Raina LaGrand, LMSW, MPH, CYT.

Raina is a somatic therapist, coach, and educator living in Ypsilanti, MI. ⁠⁠Her perspective on somatics includes responding to the ways trauma & oppression shape our experiences and capacity to thrive. She believes individual and societal transformation is made possible when we center bodies, pleasure, relationships, and culture in healing.⁠ Through her work, she seeks to support others in living fully with presence and agency.

After living with a stable fracture of a vertebrae for up to 10 years, Raina was experiencing pain that interfered with her daily life. Raina realized she couldn’t pursue healing without money. Acupuncture, chiropractic care, craniosacral therapy, and even CBD oil - things not covered by insurance all add up.

For Raina, she has been working through multiple layers of mindset to come to a point of being alright with investing in her health. I love what she says in the middle of the episode: “By making my life accessible to others, I was becoming in-accessible to myself.”

You may not be in a helping profession like Raina, but we ALL have a reason in our mind for why we can’t spend money on ourselves to work through.

Raina shares a freebie IN EPISODE, a somatic practice centered around letting go of shame or guilt surrounding your money mindset. After the guided somatic practice: journal, meditate, comment or DM us on instagram, or talk to a loved one!
