Ep 209 - Michelle Dixon | A Conversation on “Enlightenment”
In this episode, we sit down with Michelle Dixon, a somatic therapist, writer, and researcher who brings a wealth of knowledge to the conversation about trauma, spirituality, and healing. Together, we explore Michelle's experiences working with Mustafa Jumilyev and the Crimean Tatar National Movement, and how that shaped her understanding of intergenerational trauma. We dive into the ways trauma is stored and released in the body, the limitations of talk therapy in addressing pre-verbal trauma, and the transformative potential of somatic work. Michelle’s approach, which integrates both conventional and shamanic methods, offers powerful insights into the healing process for clients.
As the conversation deepens, we explore spiritual awakening, continue the conversation on ‘non-duality,’ and the importance of grounding these experiences in everyday life. We discuss the dangers of spiritual bypassing and the significance of balance in cultivating true well-being. Michelle offers profound reflections on living as both finite and infinite beings, emphasizing the need for authenticity, self-compassion, and the healing power of community. This episode challenges us all to reconsider how trauma and spirituality intersect in the pursuit of personal growth and wholeness.
