EPISODE 114 | Coming to Terms with Your Intuitive and Energetic Abilities (in the South) with Licensed Massage Therapist, Owner of Intuitive Bodywork TN, Laura Stendel

Human Amplified

Second-guessing your intuition is normal, especially in the south where there’s culturally a lot of fear around trusting your intuition… and we’ll go so far as to say trusting psychic hits that you get. Yes, you.

In this episode, we’re talking to Laura Stendel. She’s a licensed massage therapist here in Franklin, TN offering various forms of body work and energy work in her sessions. She owns Intuitive Bodywork TN, and she's known for incorporating her own intuition into her sessions and so today, we’re diving deep into that topic.

We cover things like how body work is inextricably linked to intuition for Laura, how this manifests in massage therapy sessions for her and her clients. She even gives us specific examples, which are really helpful.

Trigger Warning: As Laura shares one particular client story that she has permission to share, the topic of kidnapping and negative entities does come up for a few minutes around 15 or 20 minutes or so in. Listener discretion is advised.

But then we get into really tangible tips for how you can start to listen to your intuition and release fear around it so you can start trusting it again. Maybe you’ve been culturally conditioned to fear it or maybe you trusted it at one point but lost that connection to self through trauma. We address it all.

Laura also talks about psychic and intuitive experiences she had right around the time of the interview and she even dives in on one little hit that she got with me. Throughout the conversation, we use my own spiritual journey and experience of strengthening my intuitive abilities as an example for you.

Side note: If you haven't subscribed to my YouTube channel, Human Amplified, and this is a really interesting topic to you, feel free to go do that now. In addition to this podcast, you can follow my spiritual journey. Check out the “Going Woo with Brandi” playlist. I just started it, so the name might change eventually. But I've linked that for you here, in this video and in the description box if you’re watching and it’s linked in the show notes if you’re listening.

Now, for the last quarter of the interview, we focus on everything you need to know about chakras and tie that back into strengthening your own abilities to work with intuition and energy.

And last but not least, we end on Laura telling you what she thinks is the most important thing to remember when you’re growing, healing, taking care of yourself, and leaning into your own powerful abilities — I won’t spoil it, but I’ll give you a hint — it has to do with letting go of something you might be holding onto so tightly.

After we stopped recording, we talked on for almost an hour and both of us wished we had just kept recording. So, have no fear, I definitely think we’ll get Laura back on the show at some point to keep diving deep into these important, empowering, and life changing practices.
