Episode 152. Alex Boianghu: Coming Home to Our True Selves

In this episode, we're joined by Alex Boianghu. Alex is a dedicated and gifted therapist with over 30 years of study and practice. He uses an integrative approach to therapy, emphasizing psycho-spiritual growth grounded in somatic therapy's focus on the unity of body and mind.

Alex is trained in EMDR, a technique used to help people process and resolve trauma successfully. He is also a gifted couple's therapist, assisting the partners to reach deep levels of awareness and compassion. With compassion and discernment, Alex guides and models how to positively harness the psycho-dynamic energies we all possess to rediscover our common and innate holistic nature.

In this episode, we explore:

• returning to being

• the nature of essence

• becoming a phenomenologist

• the impact of our perceptions of experience

• embodied wholeness

• somatic work

• how trauma is stored in the body

• conditioning

• embodied breathing

• integration

• why positive affirmations don’t work

and loads more.
