Hi, I’m Helen Marie, your host of the “I Don’t Think We Talk Enough About’ podcast. Welcome to episode 9.
Today I’m excited to share this beautiful conversation that I had with Jennifer Mann where Jen shares so openly her journey through somatic healing and the power in working with the body and the nervous system to find healing. And in her new highly acclaimed international bestselling book which she wrote with co-author Karden Rabin ‘The Secret Language of The Body’ she shows you how you too can find such healing from living in survival mode. We dive into this process throughout our conversation. There’s incredible insight from Jen, vulnerability, and hope. If you are struggling with signs of nervous system dysregulation, overwhelm, stress, and anxiety then this episode is a must listen. It truly is a conversation of informed hope; a beautiful resource.
Jennifer is a mind-body practitioner and expert in the field of treating psychophysiological disorders and is the co-founder of Somia and the Heal Program. At the pinnacle of her career in holistic health and wellness, without warning, she became bedridden overnight and was diagnosed with multiple chronic illnesses, severe anxiety, chronic pain, and a myriad of “unexplained” symptoms. Despite her clinical training in neurorehabilitation and physiotherapy, and studies in biomedical sciences, she was at a loss for understanding and conventional medicine offered no explanation. Told that life as she knew it was over, Jen not only refused to let that be her prognosis, she became mission-driven to finding answers and reinventing her clinical practice.
Her journey is not merely influenced by her degrees or professional achievements, instead it is defined by personal resilience, self-transformation, and doing what the status quo said was impossible. With over a decade of dedication to studying the mind and body, Jen has emerged as a renowned clinician and an authority in integrating neurophysiology within holistic mind and body practices. Her work has been instrumental in helping thousands recover from stress, trauma and multiple chronic illnesses rooted in nervous system dysregulation. Her personal recovery has profoundly informed her work, making her methods not only innovative, but practical, relatable, and empathetically grounded. She lives in Bali with her husband and their precious son Leo.
I hope you enjoy listening to this conversation as much as I enjoyed talking with Jen.
