010: Dr Saida Désilets On Healing Through Sovereignty and Connectedness; Empowerment through Desire
On today’s episode of the Soulfull Sound Podcast, I enter into conversation with the beautiful Dr Saida Désilets who is a body philosopher, counter-culture creatrix and advocate for sexual sovereignty.
With a PhD in Trans-personal Psychology her research has opened the doors to helping women world wide to reclaim, enliven and ignite their erotic genius.
In this episode Saida shares her personal healing journey – from being told she had two weeks to live, to living a full and vibrant life. She speaks about sexual sovereignty and offers some practical first steps you can take to reclaim yours. Saida also talks about desire which she regards as an emerging, evolutionary force in our lives to be both harnessed and trusted as our own unique compass.
Saida gets personal and delves deep into her story; dropping nuggets on the steps she took towards healing herself. Her short poem (below) beautifully expresses her take on healing.
It is through loving that we heal, because in truth there is nothing to heal, only the loving to reveal.
