What if your body has been speaking… but you’ve been too busy to listen? On Wellness Reimagined, hosted by Shreya, this episode explores how true healing begins when we shift from pushing through life to gently tuning in.
This conversation is for anyone feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or constantly “on.” Dr. Danielle Griffin shares how somatic practices—combining breath, movement, and awareness—can help release stored stress, rebuild balance, and restore a deeper sense of self without forcing change.
