[Ep. 93] Somatic Psychology: Liberating Yourself From Sitting In A Chair w/ Aiyisha Castillo
"I'm not weird, I'm just from somewhere different."
Today's episode is all about honoring our "weird" -- the call to break from the norm, standard, or "right way".
Aiyisha Castillo is a Somatic Therapist, Intuitive Bodyworker and Yoga Teacher. She felt called to enter into the holistic field after returning from a 2 1/2 year trip to Africa. Her love for bodies and their innate wisdom is what guides her practice today.
In this episode, Aiyisha shares with us why and how she has eschewed many of the mandates placed upon therapists, including sitting in a chair during therapy sessions. We also explore how her calling to approach therapy differently impacts both her and her clients.
