Episode 110. On this week’s podcast, we talk to Pooja Arora who you are going to absolutely love. (Peyton, my intern who edits the podcast says it was one of her favorite episodes ever).
Even though I feel really excited about this episode, a part of me is definitely anxious.
Why?
Because on the podcast, we talk about a variety of methods of healing that aren’t all unequivocally supported by rigorous scientific research.
We talk on the episode about interventions like Emotional Freedom Technique (aka EFT Tapping), Neurolinguistic Programming, among other interventions, including my personal experience with trying some of these methods out.
Basically, there is research supporting some of the methods above, but how well it works compared to other methods, and why it works is not totally clear.
And the world I come from, the western psychological research world, tends to frown up such things… 🙂
Navigating the nuance
And although a part of me is worried about what you will think of me, the truth is I believe we need to have more conversations about methods outside the traditionally accepted, 100% unequivocally supported by randomized controlled trials, track.
I love science and research.
And, it has major flaws and limitations.
The truth is, that traditional methods of healing leave many of us struggling, suffering, and sometimes spending years not getting the healing results we crave.
The reality is I’ve always been open to other methods, even if I have many skeptical parts that come along for the ride.
And as Pooja says in today’s interview, those skeptical parts are allowed. They can join.
And if you could get relief for a physical or emotional symptom that’s been plaguing you for years in a few sessions, would your interest be piqued?
I know mine was.
The Power of Intuition
Pooja Arora is someone that I was introduced to through my parent coach Randi Rubenstein.
She did some work with some of the other moms in the group, indvidiually and in a group setting and people were getting great results.
Some of the results she has gotten for others are outlined in our conversation and some in her bio in this week’s ​blog post​.
When we connected, she shared that she has dealt with a lot of her own body image concerns, and overcome a lot in that area, despite really persistent shaming and bullying throughout her life.
At that point, I knew I had to have her on. She does her own work, has gotten great results for herself and others, and what I’m realizing more and more is that it’s much more about the person delivering the healing modality, and your trust and belief in them, than even the method itself.
This was truly a great conversation. So without further ado, here’s what you can expect in my conversation with Pooja:
- How Pooja got relief from debilitating stomach pain and infection after trying all the things, in just 2 transformational sessions
- Her experiences growing up in India and her experiences with persistent bullying about her body and appearance, and the ways she has overcome this
- Pooja’s MANY areas of specialty and 20 different certifications, including but not limited to Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), Neurolinguistic Programming, Past Life Regression, Reiki, and many more
- The techniques that were most helpful to her in healing trauma and body shame
- What Emotional Freedom Tapping (EFT) was developed for (bringing relief to Vietnam veterans)
- What an EFT session could look like to help resolve body shame triggers
- How psychotherapy can be synergistic with EFT
- The story of how Pooja helped me to release a very difficult experience from when I was a young child, and how several months later my current reaction is very different to the same trigger
- And much more!
