To oppose beauty would be to oppose healing.”

-Kate Horsman, The Everything Belongs Podcast


 

Today on the Everything Belongs Podcast, Madison is in conversation with Kate Horsman. Kate (she/her) is a seasoned Integrative Practitioner. Merging her education and work as a Counsellor, Nutritionist, Mindfulness leader and now a Breathwork Facilitator and Integrative Healer in Vancouver, BC Canada. Kate is passionate about supporting individuals through brave conversations, creative practices and experiences that facilitate a reconnection and reclamation of self/soul, using integrative methods to cultivate agency and healing. Although her education is vast, what she holds more foundational, is the integration of her own personal life experience and healing in tandem with the multi modality work. The idea that we are only able to meet others so deep as we have met ourselves, is a resonant signature of Kate’s work. Curiosity has brought Kate to studies in Nutrition (CSNN), Professional Counselling (VCCT) Mindfulness (MBSR) and Plant based science (eCornell) melding the bridge between the mind/body connection which lends to some of her specialization and interest in working with Eating Disorders and Body Image issues. More recently, Kate has invested the last 4 years studying Ancestral and Alternative healing. Some of what Kate now is so excited to offer, is a practice in Breathwork and Energy Medicine which are fast becoming tools for transformation in connecting towards not just our psyche, but our soul. In this episode, Madison and Kate speak on how beauty and art can work through the body to create healing.  They touch on Kate's history of eating disorder, how breathwork can support us and the nuanced balance of dancing between sovereignty and intimacy.
