Healing Beyond the Mind, Somatic Intelligence with Alexandra McCalla
Mar 26, 2025
Have you ever felt like no matter how much mindset work you do, something still holds you back?
In my latest podcast episode, I had the privilege of speaking with Alexandra McCalla, a Breathwork & Somatic Therapist and founder of Somatic Intelligence. Alexandra’s work focuses on helping people move beyond intellectual understanding and into deep, body-based healing.
We explored how trauma, stress, and unprocessed emotions can live in the body—often keeping us stuck in survival mode without realizing it. She explained how somatic therapy helps people release these hidden barriers, allowing them to reconnect with their authentic selves.
Alexandra also shared her own powerful story of overcoming chronic stress, PTSD, and autoimmune disorders. She went from living in a state of depletion to experiencing true vitality—something she now helps others achieve.
Some key takeaways from our conversation:
-
Why traditional self-improvement often falls short when trauma is stored in the body
-
How somatic therapy and breathwork can help release deep-seated stress and emotions
-
Signs that you might be operating in survival mode without realizing it
-
Simple practices to start reconnecting with your body today
If you’re ready to go beyond wellness and tap into a deeper level of healing, this episode is a must-listen.
