#43 Taking ownership of our healing + moving through stagnation w/Dr. Sean Orr

The Mothering Myself Podcast - A podcast by Susan Kinahan

This week's episode discusses the transformative nature of life + motherhood through the Traditional Chinese Medicinal (TCM) perspective with acupuncturist, Dr. Sean Orr. Dr. Orr has been a consistent healing presence in my life since our entrance into 2020. He has supported my process of healing the past via releasing old emotional energies triggered due to generational familial patterns, as well as supporting the building of the future by easing the physically experienced pregnancy symptoms of the new life evolving from within me. I respect his work and appreciate the knowledge, wisdom, and healing presence housed within. In this conversation we discuss what TCM is and how it supports all of us, but especially those navigating the motherhood journey. Dr. Orr speaks to the healing journey as a dance with an intermediary, and reminds us that we are each responsible for moving through our unique healing process as we find what works and does not work for us. In addition, we learn what is at the root of all illness and we are reminded that there is always a grey area - nothing is ever black or white, especially with regard to our healing journey. In addition to the above, Dr. Orr discusses sleep hygiene, how we have become divorced from our feelings, the postpartum journey, and how we can love ourselves through the moment we are navigating right now, wherever it is that we find ourselves. I loved learning more about the wisdom and theory behind this healing modality and I can't wait to hear what resonates for you! FIND SEAN: Website | Instagram FIND SUSAN: Instagram | Facebook
