Ep 26: What Healing Really Looks Like — with Julie Brams, LMFT

Julie Brams has spent over 30 years helping people get out of their own way — in the therapy room and in the forest. She's a licensed marriage and family therapist, eco-psychologist, and certified Forest Therapy guide whose work sits at the crossroads of inner healing and the natural world.In this conversation we go deep. We talk about nervous system dysregulation as a cultural disease, not a personal failure. We explore why self-love remains the wound underneath every wound. We get into Forest Therapy — Shinrin Yoku — and why nature isn't just a backdrop for healing, it's the therapist. We talk about couples, why two dysregulated people create a third dysregulation called a relationship, and why individual work always has to come first.Julie also shares her Nautilus Gold Award-winning book The Nature Embedded Mind — and why reconnecting to the rest of nature isn't spiritual luxury. It's clinical imperative.If you've ever felt like you don't belong in the world as it is — you might just be more awake than you think.Topics: Forest Therapy | Shinrin Yoku | Mental Health | Self-Love | Eco-Psychology | Nature and Healing | Couples Therapy | Nervous System Regulation | Mindfulness | Meditation | Indigenous Wisdom | Ecological Crisis | Mind-Body ConnectionConnect with Julie:Website: juliebrams.com | experiencelemental.comInstagram: @juliebramslmft
