118. Healing Chronic Pain through Hypnosis, Embodiment, and Integration with Dr. Alana

There comes a point on the healing journey when you’ve done everything “right”. You’ve changed your diet, cleared your energy, done the affirmations, taken all the supplements, meditated, journaled, maybe even begged the universe for relief and still… the pain lingers.Maybe it's chronic illness. Maybe it’s burnout. Maybe it’s migraines, autoimmune flare-ups, gut issues, or that gnawing fatigue that never seems to go away no matter how much you rest.If that sounds familiar, this episode of It’s Karmic is for you.What if your chronic pain, your migraines, your burnout… were never random?What if they were your soul, screaming for your attention?This week on It’s Karmic, I had a deeply powerful conversation with Dr. Alana, a naturopathic doctor, hypnotherapist, and plant medicine guide who’s helping people heal the real root of their suffering by returning to the body, not bypassing it.We went deep into:How pain is often stored, emotional energy. It’s unfelt, unseen, and unprocessed.Why chronic illness, migraines, and burnout are actually invitations into deeper presence.The nervous system’s sacred role in healing and why quick fixes rarely last.How hypnotherapy gently bypasses the overthinking mind to reach the parts that need love the most.What it really takes to integrate healing (and why spiritual work without integration is just another illusion).Dr. Alana’s story of hitting rock bottom, even as a practitioner doing “all the right things”, is so damn relatable. And her gentle, powerful wisdom will crack your heart wide open.This episode is for you if...You’ve done all the right things. The supplements, protocols, and mindset work but the pain or dis-ease still lingers.You’ve been burned out, stuck in survival mode, or living in a constant state of “pushing through.”You’ve felt betrayed by your body, and you’re craving a deeper, more soul-honouring path to healing.You suspect your symptoms might be carrying emotional or energetic messages but you don’t know how to decode them.You’re curious about how hypnosis and nervous system healing can support chronic pain, illness, or anxiety.You’re tired of trying to fix yourself and ready to finally come home to your body.Connect with Dr. AlanaInstagramFacebookWant to start decoding your Karmic Astrology?

What if the parts of you that feel broken… were actually the keys to your wholeness?This week on the It’s Karmic podcast, I sat down with my dear soul sister, psychotherapist and underworld guide Rachael Spyker, for a conversation that dives right into the 8th house terrain.Rachael Spyker is a psychotherapist, depth guide, and medicine woman who walks people into the underworld and back again, holding space for the parts they’ve had to abandon just to survive. In this episode, she shares her powerful story of growing up inside a religious cult, the trauma that fractured her sense of self, and how she reclaimed her identity, her power, and her truth through somatic healing, nervous system work, and deep emotional presence.We talk about how trauma gets stored in the body and how so many of us have been taught to suppress, override, and shame our emotional experiences when in truth, those very emotions are the gateway to relief, reclamation, and wholeness.Rachael speaks to the parts of us we shame, asking the questions no one else is asking:What if your binging, your disassociation, your Netflix spirals are actually forms of medicine?What if healing isn’t about fixing yourself, but remembering who you were before you had to leave?What if you could stop performing, stop trying to “do healing right,” and start simply being with what is?In this episode we discuss: Why shaking, binging, and even Netflix are sometimes actually medicine.How trauma lives in the body and how to release it.The difference between healing and relief.The truth about spiritual bypassing and why you have to feel it to heal it.What happens when we meet our deepest pain with real, loving presence (hint: it’s magic).This isn’t just a conversation… Follow Rachael Discover Rachael's Work [https://www.instagram.com/rachaelspyker/https://substack.com/@psychedelicpsychotherapist?utm_source=user-menuhttps://www.alchemycounselling.ca/]You deserve to be held.

In this episode of It’s Karmic, Raechelle Embrey returns for an open and raw discussion on the deep shifts we’re collectively navigating. With Pluto in Aquarius, Neptune’s final degrees in Pisces, and Saturn’s influence, we’re feeling the weight of transformation—both personally and collectively.You'll discover: Pluto in Aquarius & The Breakdown of Old Structures Pluto is reshaping the landscape of our lives, forcing us to confront what’s no longer working. Raechelle and I explore the disintegration of outdated systems, both in the collective and in our personal realities, and the discomfort that comes with stepping into the unknown.Neptune & Saturn in Pisces: The End of Illusions With Neptune finishing its journey in Pisces and Saturn enforcing reality checks, we discuss how these transits are exposing deception, outdated beliefs, and where we’ve been conditioned to follow narratives that no longer resonate. The confusion many are feeling is part of this unraveling, asking us to tap into our own inner truth.Burnout, Social Media & The Need for Authenticity The pressure to stay constantly visible, create bite-sized content, and ‘keep up’ is leading many entrepreneurs and healers into exhaustion. We explore how Pluto is calling us to slow down, deepen our impact, and break free from the hustle mentality. The old ways of doing business are crumbling, and we’re being asked to create from a place of alignment rather than force.The Power of Feeling & Alchemizing Emotions Anger, frustration, grief—these emotions are rising to the surface, not to be ignored, but to be alchemized. In a world that often shames deep emotional expression, we talk about the importance of allowing emotions to move through us rather than suppressing them. True transformation happens when we allow ourselves to fully feel, process, and integrate.Why Depth Over Trends Matters More Than Ever As the collective shifts, people are craving depth and substance. Whether in business, healing, or relationships, there’s a call to step away from surface-level tactics and embrace the work that truly matters. This is a time to strip away the distractions and focus on what’s truly in alignment.If you’ve been feeling lost, exhausted, or unsure about what’s next, this episode is for you. It’s time to honour where you are, trust the shifts happening, and allow your soul’s true path to unfold without force.Who is Raechelle Embrey?  Intuitive Astrologer, Soul Activator, Spiritual Guide & Frequency healer catalyzing women to create spiritual wealth & energetic mastery inside their business and relationships.ᴀɴɪᴍᴀʟ ᴄᴏᴍᴍᴜɴɪᴄᴀᴛᴏʀ ɢᴜɪᴅɪɴɢ ʏᴏᴜ ᴛᴏ 𝑯𝑬𝑨𝑳 𝑾𝑰𝑻𝑯 𝒀𝑶𝑼𝑹 𝑨𝑵𝑰𝑴𝑨𝑳𝑺AQUARIUS SUN ✺LIBRA RISING ACCAPRICORN MOON ☾@raechelleembreyhttps://www.raeradiantvibes.com/https://www.raeradiantvibes.com/podcast

In this episode, we explore how aligning with your Midheaven and integrating it with your Nadir can unlock your soul’s purpose. Gissell Torres shares powerful insights on how energetic patterns, karmic healing, and ancestral wisdom play a pivotal role in our journey towards fulfilling our purpose. Key Takeaways: Midheaven and Nadir: The Midheaven represents our highest potential and soul purpose, while the Nadir reflects our deepest wounds and subconscious patterns. Balancing both is essential for alignment and growth. Karmic Patterns and Ancestral Healing: Unresolved ancestral patterns and past life energies often shape our current struggles. Gissell explains how the Akashic records reveal these patterns and guide us toward healing and transformation. The Role of the Akashic Records: The Akashic records offer a loving, unconditional space for uncovering and healing past life wounds, ancestral curses, and vows that are limiting our expression of true purpose. Clearing Limiting Energies: Old vows, curses, and negative ancestral patterns often tie us to limiting beliefs around money, relationships, and personal worth. These energies can be cleared with conscious awareness and intention. Living Your Authentic Purpose: True purpose is about bringing your soul’s frequency into the physical world. Integrating your Midheaven (highest potential) and Nadir (hidden wounds) creates balance and helps you step into your most authentic, fulfilling life. The Power of Words: Be mindful of the words you speak—your language creates your reality. Negative statements can influence your future and extend into future lives if left unchecked. This episode serves as a reminder that to live your purpose, you must address both your light and shadow, integrating them to create balance and fulfillment. By healing the past and aligning with your highest self, you can live a life of joy and purpose. Who is Gissell Torres?
