Notes from Within:
REFLECTIONS ON HEALING, SPIRIT, AND THE BODY
The Roundness of Healing: The Soul’s Language
Healing is rarely linear it’s a round, unfolding process of remembering who we are. In this reflection on spiritual integration therapy, Mallory Tedrick, LPCC, explores how the language of the soul can guide trauma healing beyond words. Through somatic awareness, mindfulness, and holistic practices, she invites clients to connect body, mind, and spirit to rediscover meaning after anxiety, depression, or PTSD. This approach to holistic trauma therapy honors both the science of psychology and the mystery of the sacred within.
Mental Health and Spirituality: Two Paths, One Journey
Our mental health and spirituality are not separate paths but two threads of the same journey. Mental health provides resilience and safety, while spirituality offers meaning, presence, and hope. Together, they create a foundation for healing and wholeness. When we regulate the nervous system, release trauma, or engage in practices like meditation, prayer, or time in nature, we open the door to deeper connection—with ourselves and with something greater.
