Bodywork is Soul Work with Dusti VanTilborg
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Ready for a deep dive into bodywork? On today's episode, I'm chatting with my own personal bodywork healer, Dusti VanTilborg. For 21 years, Dusti has been in the healing space and is the owner of Heartfelt Therapies LLC, which offers massage and various other healing modalities. Additionally, her private studio, Wild Grace Journeys, is where she offers breath work, and hosts women’s circles, retreats, and workshops.
Dusti's passion and devotion to her own personal development and holistic healing journey led her to create a wellness team that she works with regularly, attending workshops, retreats, ceremonies, and rituals all over the world. Through her travels and studies she has experienced profound soul growth and transformation, and has woven many of the practices she has gained into her sessions with clients, as well as into her community through workshops, gatherings, and retreat offerings.
Today we talk about how bodywork = soul work. It's so much more than massage, it's about accessing the soul, trusting your intuition, gaining wisdom through intentional touch, and honoring where you are in the present moment. We are all sacred witnesses to our lives, and we are our ultimate healers. We simply need to pause, sit in stillness, and learn to listen to what our bodies are telling us. Tune into the episode to hear about ways to expand your healing through touch, nature, movement, breath, creativity, music, and soul communication to the mind, through the body.
