There is energy in everything.
In this episode my guest Tina Wells chats about her journey to finding emotional relief and mental wellbeing, along the way showcasing various practices and creative outlets that foster joy and reduce stress.
Tina has always had a deep appreciation for nature and science – including a fascination with energy bonds, organic matter and the interconnectedness of living organisms – leading to a career as an ecologist and surveying butterflies in Bristol (among other roles!).
During a move to San Francisco with her husband and young son, Tina discovered the mental-health benefits of T'ai Chi Chih, which has helped her to overcome personal challenges including anxiety and postnatal depression. Tina went on to train in this moving form of meditation and now leads her own group sessions, focusing on stress relief through movement and breathing techniques.
