E18 - Jordyn Denning: Evolved Female Friendships, EMDR Therapy, and Sustainable Self Development

Jordyn is back on Easy A today for a deeper dive into our healing journeys through EMDR therapy, breathwork, and cultivating healthy female friendships. Jordyn and Allie open up about their experience with EMDR, a form of therapy that focuses on processing and re-patterning trauma responses that live unconsciously in your body.  They share about their quest for self improvement and the role that community has played in it. Jordyn and Alexis discuss how they’ve learned to alchemize the triggers in their friendship and get rid of the outdated notion that suggests female friendships are full of competition and resentment.  They also share their personal experience with balancing their masculine and feminine sides, cultivating a neutral perspective in challenging times, and processing intense emotions without being overtaken by them. _____ 0:00 Intro 2:46 Using EMDR Therapy to Regulate Your Nervous System 10:45 Regulating the Parasympathetic Nervous System  11:55 The Last Trap of Healing 19:18 Healing Through Community  22:25 Evolved Female Friendships  32:30 Balancing Our Masculine/ Feminine Side 36:15 Building Neutrality into Our Perspective  46:23 How to Feel Emotions Without Being Overtaken By Them 57:11 Healing Trauma Responses Somatically  1:02:14 The Power of Breathwork 1:09:00 Committing to Personal Growth & Trying Something New 1:17:50 Conclusion _____ Jordyn Denning:  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jordyndenning/?hl=en _____ Shop Agravitae:  https://agravitae.com/ampm Stay Connected:  Listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0ZGMajufmT6ppp4LbKaaiV?si=191d8e2c380540a2 Listen on Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/easy-a-podcast/id1759634287 Easy A Instagram ~ https://www.instagram.com/easyapodcast/ Alexis Ren ~ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/alexisren/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@alexis Allie Michelle ~ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/alliemichellel/ Allie’s New Book: Legends of Lemuria: https://shopcatalog.com/products/legends-of-lemuria Our Guided Journal: https://www.intelligentchange.com/pages/becoming-a-warrior-journal?utm_source=social&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=BAW&utm_content=allie Our Courses: We are Warriors: https://wearewarriors.co
