Can you share with us a defining moment or experience that inspired you to establish Soma Soul Sovereignty, and how has that journey evolved since its inception?
I became aware that we are more powerful and able to self heal than we have been conditioned to believe as I worked with my own self-healing journey. This led me to deeply study what elevated stress, which is a root cause for many of our weak spots to emerge. When we remove the cause or heal the stress, healing comes forward in many ways.
In your work supporting individuals to reclaim their ability to self-heal, what do you see as the biggest obstacles people face in tapping into their innate wisdom, and how do you help them overcome these challenges?
Stress can originate from our beliefs, ancestral lineages, emotional, trauma or karmic patterns. When we are able to be well supported and find ways to lift and heal these patterns our innate self-healing wisdom arises with ease. Realizing we are multidimensional beings connected to source creates space for us to manifest a healing vibration that supports us organizing around our gifts, talents, and attributes we have come to use, and releases the outdated stories holding us back. Becoming curious about our patterns with self compassion and love and willing to try something that supports us in our state of balance and harmony allows our energies to flow.
What type of services do you offer?
I train practitioners in energy work, and yoga therapy, as well as offer group classes and 1-1 support for people’s healing journey.
The Micro Alchemist, a monthly subscription to a class held weekly live, on zoom and recorded that blends all the modalities to support self healing. As well as the podcast and radio show Exploring Sovereignty with Elizabeth available on all podcast platforms and airs Sundays at 11 am on am950 Radio where we explore pathways to being free with heart centered thought leaders to support our evolution into higher consciousness.
What role do you believe self-realization plays in achieving overall well-being, and how does Soma Soul Sovereignty facilitate this process?
Self realization and self healing are intimate companions on the healing path to wholeness. They are our birthright and when we come into human form we sometimes forget this. To be reminded that we are truly light beings having a human experience supports the process of deeper connection to the consciousness that is ever within us and around us.
How do you tailor your approach to accommodate the diverse needs and backgrounds of your clients while maintaining the integrity of your methodology?
Each person I have the privilege to partner with on their healing path may need a different entry point, listening to their intentions I provide them the pathways I am trained within–Yoga Therapy, Yoga Nidra, SomaYoga Therapy, Ayurveda, energy medicine, somatics, the Harmonic Eggs, and ancestry and other lifetimes work, or sometimes a blend of it if appropriate. The person before me knows what it is like to be in that body, or to be experiencing the unease and so through deep listening, and working with their higher self–that place of wisdom, we proceed. I am clear about what each methodology can provide them with, and we check in before, throughout the session and at the end to support their interoceptive awareness growing–what has shifted or changed? Do they feel complete for what they can do today with me? And what are the best practices to integrate the work post session and in-between sessions? These are all part of the scope of practice we collaborate on so that they can keep progressing well.
In your opinion, what are some misconceptions people commonly have about self-healing, and how do you address these misconceptions in your practice?
Sometimes people come to me and are over identified with their symptom pattern, pain, disease, the body, or the belief and where our awareness goes so does the breath and energy that continues to manifest that pattern. Providing a space where they can remember what it is like to be in the healing space and process so that they begin to remember that energy and feeling and growth that supports the process. Our body is constantly talking with us, initially at a whisper and if we override it that whisper will grow louder in its presentation. Learning how to attune to the body in ways that support its brilliance is an incredible journey. The longer we are in the body the more masterful we are able to become with the body which is a manifestation of energy. Everything is energy, even our bodies. Energy changes and we can too, you are not your condition you are something far greater than we ever imagined we could become and be.
People sometimes do not realize that healing is not linear. It requires some letting go as the newer energies come in to support the process of healing, and that they have way more abilities to self-heal than they ever realized. We’ve been conditioned to think give me a pill or a quick fix instead of doing the deeper work to release the pattern instead of suppressing the pattern and giving our sovereignty away to others.
