Sophia De Fossard on Healing Through Self-Awareness and Compassion

Maybe through that acceptance we're able to have the resources to find some change.
Ever wondered how self-awareness and acceptance can pave the way to healing? In this episode of 'A Quest for Well-Being', Valeria Teles sits down with Sophia De Fossard, a yoga teacher and social worker, to explore the profound impact of trauma-informed practices. Sophia delves into her experiences with somatic trauma therapy, emphasizing the importance of creating a safe environment for individuals to reconnect with their bodies.
She shares how being mindful of her language, demeanor, and even her scent plays a crucial role in making her students feel secure. The conversation highlights the necessity of self-compassion, especially for those grappling with trauma, and the role mindfulness plays in enhancing self-awareness. Sophia and Valeria discuss how trauma affects behavior and the value of viewing the world through a trauma-informed lens.
They also touch on the evolving nature of yoga, which now focuses more on self-awareness than physical perfection. A key takeaway from this episode is the power of acceptance in facilitating change and personal growth. As Sophia puts it, 'Maybe through that acceptance we're able to have the resources to find some change'. Tune in to discover more about self-awareness, acceptance, and the journey towards healing.
