Adoption and Healing

The HEAVEN ON EARTH Podcast: A Portal to Possibility

The subject of adoption often goes hand in hand with complex emotions and identity struggles, yet these narratives are seldom fully explored. We invite you to listen to the raw, unfiltered stories tied to the adoptee experience, where Julie Lopez -- a trauma-informed psychotherapist and trauma survivor and riser -- recounts her journey which serves as a beacon for understanding the deep emotional landscape many adoptees navigate. From societal pressures to the loss of cultural identity, this episode peels back the layers of adoption, revealing the essential need for empathy and support beyond the "happy ending" myth.
Julie shares her powerful insights and profound personal experiences. Her expertise in brain-based interventions and founding of the Viva Center illuminate the path to healing, not just for trauma survivors but for anyone seeking to unlock their full potential. This conversation promises a transformative view of our mind, body, and spirit connection – a true guide to creating our own Heaven on Earth.
Embarking on a quest for holistic growth, we discuss the limitations of talk therapy and the incredible potential of non-verbal therapeutic approaches. Our bodies are storehouses of trauma and knowledge, and Julie guides us through understanding this concept for post-traumatic growth. We wrap up our time together with a spiritual and cellular communion meditation, embracing the significance of daily commitment and collective practices for well-being. Join us for a revelatory episode that promises to leave you with a profound connection and the tools for personal transformation.
