In this episode, Erin sits down with a guest teacher from her upcoming 250hr Somatic Facilitator Training, Sylvie Lahaie— a scientist, yoga teacher, and meditation guide who bridges neuroscience with nervous system healing in a way that’s clear, grounded, and deeply human.
Together, they unpack the real-life application of breathwork, the brain’s stress responses, and why healing doesn’t come from one big “aha” — but from consistent, honest micro-moves that actually meet the body where it is.
This isn’t a quick-fix convo. It’s a rich dialogue about how trauma shows up in daily life, how the brain adapts, and why slowing down is actually a radical act. They explore how science supports somatic work — and why breath is one of the most powerful (and underused) tools we have for regulation.
