Send us a text (https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/2364012/open_sms) In this powerful episode of the ANEW Body Insight Podcast, Dr. Supatra Tovar sits down with Holistic Trauma Therapist Seema Sharma to explore how consciousness is the key to unlocking deep trauma healing. From government-sponsored remote viewing programs to somatic therapy, breathwork, and energy-based healing, this conversation bridges science, psychology, and spirituality. Seema shares her personal evolution from Fortune 500 executive to founder of Legacy Trauma Therapy and The Consciousness Center. Learn how her unique integration of traditional therapy with non-local consciousness, emotional integration, and somatic practices offers a groundbreaking approach to healing trauma—both personal and intergenerational. We also explore: • What consciousness really is—and how it’s measured in neuroscience and psychology • The science behind Holotropic Breathwork and how it compares to psychedelics • The role of the limbic system in trauma and loneliness • Tools like automatic writing, nature immersion, “lead by spirit” weekends, and intention setting • How one person’s healing can positively impact generations • Why unresolved trauma lives in the body—and how to safely release it Seema also dives into how transpersonal psychology, APA Division 32, and notable research institutions like Duke and the University of Arizona are bringing legitimacy to fields once labeled as fringe science. What makes this episode truly compelling is our discussion on the government’s former use of psychic intelligence through declassified remote viewing programs. Seema explains how these initiatives explored the boundaries of human perception and contributed to the current body of research on transpersonal psychology. You’ll also hear about the APA’s Division 32, studies from institutions like Duke and the University of Arizona, and how researchers like Charles Tart and Marjorie Wolcott are pushing the science of consciousness forward. For those navigating inherited family trauma, Seema breaks down how a single individual’s healing journey can ripple through entire generations. Her therapy model empowers individuals to reconnect with their authentic selves, release energetic blocks, and move beyond survival mode. We also explore actionable tools like automatic writing, meditation, somatics, and “lead by spirit” weekends to guide you into deeper alignment with your true self. Whether you’re a clinician, trauma survivor, wellness seeker, or simply curious about the deeper dimensions of healing, this episode offers powerful insight and evidence-based practices that illuminate the path to wholeness. If you're interested in trauma-informed therapy, somatic psychology, or spiritual approaches to healing, this episode is a must-watch.

How Consciousness Can Heal Trauma | Remote Viewing, Somatic Therapy & Breathwork | ANEW Ep 65
Send us a text (https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/2364012/open_sms) In this powerful second installment of our conversation with 40+ Fitness founder and personal transformation expert Allan Misner, we go far beyond traditional fitness advice. Allan returns to the ANEW Body Insight Podcast with Dr. Supatra Tovar to dive deep into the psychology behind behavior change, the barriers to lasting motivation, and the practical strategies that anyone over 40 (or any age!) can implement to reclaim their health. This episode is a masterclass in mindset. Allan introduces his Five Fitness Personality Types—Pedals, Co-Pilot, Windshield, Tires, and Atlas—that help explain why we often stall out on our health goals and how to overcome those roadblocks with clarity and confidence. Whether you're the person who hits the gas and brakes repeatedly (Pedals), the one always taking care of others before yourself (Co-Pilot), or someone haunted by a “former self” image (Windshield), Allan provides an actionable framework to break through. You’ll learn how to: • Redefine fitness goals with compassion and self-awareness • Use tiny habits and positive reinforcement to build momentum • Identify your fitness mindset and unlock your unique “superpower” • Reduce friction around healthy habits (and add it where it counts!) • Cultivate self-compassion as a motivational strategy, not a weakness • Set goals that are not just SMART—but SMART-A (Actionable!) Dr. Supatra and Allan discuss real-life client stories, including how one woman’s journey from getting winded walking to her car evolved into daily walks around the neighborhood, simply by stacking micro-wins and celebrating progress. From the emotional impact of food triggers to the importance of setting healthy boundaries, this episode will leave you inspired and equipped with tangible tools. We also explore why community and accountability are the missing keys in most wellness journeys—and how building self-efficacy is less about willpower and more about designing your environment to support your future self. If you’ve ever felt stuck in a cycle of fitness starts and stops, or if you're looking to find a more compassionate, psychologically sound path to wellness, this episode will resonate deeply.

How to Stay Motivated After 40 + Fitness Mindset Types, Self-Compassion & Lasting Change | ANEW Ep64
Send us a text (https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/2364012/open_sms)  Welcome to Episode 64 of the ANEW Body Insight Podcast with your host, Dr. Supatra Tovar—clinical psychologist, registered dietitian, and fitness expert. This week, we’re joined by the incredibly inspiring Allan Misner: personal trainer, health coach, author of The Wellness Roadmap, and host of the long-running 40+ Fitness Podcast. Allan shares his powerful story of personal transformation—from a self-described "fat, unhealthy executive" at age 39 to becoming a physically and emotionally strong coach, now dedicated to helping others over 40 reclaim their health, independence, and vitality. In this conversation, Allan opens up about the mindset shift that changed everything: commitment. He describes how a phone call from his daughter ignited a realization that being a spectator in her life wasn’t enough—he needed to participate. That moment led him to take consistent, focused action: changing the way he ate, moved, slept, and thought. His story is one of full transformation through daily, intentional choices that honored both his physical needs and emotional values. Allan introduces listeners to his expanded SMART goals framework—with an extra “A” for Action—emphasizing the importance of realistic, behavior-based changes that prioritize whole foods, consistent movement, sleep, and stress management. He shares the deeply emotional reasons behind his drive: being there for his daughter, walking her down the aisle, and preparing for a future where he can fully engage with potential grandchildren. From Tough Mudders to torn rotator cuffs, Allan also dives into resilience—how setbacks like injury can be navigated with clarity, self-compassion, and commitment to long-term goals. He and Dr. Tovar explore the critical role of feeling “safe” in the body and how that inner sense of safety is key for releasing fat, building muscle, and healing—physically and emotionally. Whether you’re starting your own midlife transformation or supporting others on theirs, this episode offers a roadmap of wisdom, practicality, and inspiration. You’ll walk away with tools to reconnect with your body, redefine your health journey, and reject unsustainable diet culture narratives once and for all.
