Key Takeaways:
- How Psychedelics can help uncover deep-seated trauma and emotional pain.
- Signs of Trauma in the womb: numbness, pain, irregular cycles, endo, PCOS.
- New ways of Cycle syncing for non-bleeding women & External vulva touch and gradual internal dearmoring as release.
Certified Trauma-Informed Somatic Practitioner and Womb Mystic, Leslie Draffin wants to remind women that our bodies already know the way back to wholeness (acknowledging that we are already whole, we just need to reclaim it) —and all you need is a system to support that. We explore how micro-dosing psilocybin, nervous system work, and cycle syncing help women move from numb, disconnected and overthinking to grounded, clear, and self-led. Cosigning equal doses of science backed work, with spiritually-"the woo".
As an adopted, preacher's daughter, who contracted herpes during early sexual experiences, she openly discusses her personal experience with the feeling of being disconnected from her body, and the shame and disdain she felt about herself- highlighting that trauma and emotional pain often gets stored in the womb. She speaks on the prevailing feeling of needing to do everything “right”, in the Western model, and yet, still feeling stuck. She shares a powerful turning point: invoking the mother archetype during a guided journey, confronting grief, leaving a 15-year career, and choosing sobriety. Highlighting that you can transition from the maiden to the mother archetype without having children.
