The Power of Authenticity and Setting Boundaries

In a world where societal pressures and expectations can often hinder our ability to be true to ourselves, it's important to remember the power of authenticity and setting boundaries. In a recent podcast episode, two women, JJ and Anna, shared their personal journeys and experiences with navigating these challenges.

Anna, a mental health therapist, yoga teacher, and Reiki master, emphasized the importance of following one's intuition and setting boundaries, even if it means saying no to others. She shared her own journey of working through societal pressures and institutions, particularly in relation to religion, and encouraged others to have the courage to go through difficult emotions and experiences.

JJ and Anna also discussed the power of community and connection, particularly among women. They both agreed that coming together and sharing their stories and strengths can break the pattern of women being pitted against each other by societal institutions. Anna emphasized the importance of remembering the healing practices and cultures that have been passed down through generations of women.

Anna also shared how incorporating practices like Reiki and yoga into her therapy sessions has helped her clients to heal more deeply and quickly. She and another therapist create a practice that treats the whole person, not just their mind in therapy, but also their body, spirit, energy, and emotions. Anna sees it as a dream come true to be doing this work with people.
