E12 - Healing Through Joy: Rewiring How We Experience the Inner Work with Alice May Redmond

In this week’s episode of Let’s Get Spiritual, we’re joined by somatic therapist Alice Redmond for a deeply refreshing (and fun) conversation about what healing can actually look like when we stop making it so heavy.If you’ve ever felt stuck in the cycle of always needing to “fix” something about yourself — or like healing has to feel hard, intense, or emotional — this episode is for you.We explore how to bring joy, expression, and lightness into the process without bypassing the real work. We share tools and practices that bring more joy, fun and play into your healing, and discuss when to go deep… and when to give yourself permission to enjoy your life.Whether you're in the middle of something tender or just tired of taking it all so seriously, this episode will show you a more sustainable (and enjoyable) way forward.Key Talking Points Why healing often feels heavy and how to shift that Why constantly focusing on what's “wrong” and ‘fixing’ yourself blocks joy How joy, fun, and play can be the most healing thing you can doThe difference between emotional bypassing and expression — and why one heals and the other numbsHow to know when to go deeper… and when to take a breakPractical tools to bring more lightness, aliveness, and regulation into your healing journey Links and Resources MentionedBooksWhen the Body Says No - Gabor MatéTo work with Sarah: For July Transformational Breathwork Journey - https://www.sarahscullyleaf.com/transformationalbreathwork For deep 1:1 transformation - https://www.sarahscullyleaf.com/tew For one-off sessions - email [email protected] access to Sarah’s group breathwork events (limited spots) - https://sarahscullyleaf.myflodesk.com/breathworkConnect with AliceInstagram:  https://www.instagram.com/alicemayredmondTry Open for 30 days for free here: CODE: ALICEMAY30Connect with Sarah:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sarahscullyleafConnect with Chanel:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/etherealsoulcodesDon’t Forget To:Subscribe to the podcast:Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/66jHJvKtZfuObhR9uxuy7ZApple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/lets-get-spiritual-podcast/id1803752354Follow us on Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/letsgetspiritualpodcast
