What if healing doesn’t come from pushing harder… but from slowing down?In this episode of Stories That Matter, a Logan’s Voice series, Doug sits down with Lori Carter, a certified forest bathing guide and Reiki practitioner, to explore how grief lives in the body, not just the mind.Because grief isn’t only emotional.It’s physical.It’s neurological.And sometimes, your body doesn’t feel safe anymore.In this conversation, we break down:• Why grief can feel like anxiety, panic, or exhaustion• How the nervous system responds to loss like a threat• What “forest bathing” really is and why it works• The science behind slowing down and reconnecting with nature• Simple ways to begin healing, even if you feel overwhelmed• How energy work like Reiki can help release what’s stuckThis episode is for anyone carrying grief, stress, or emotional weight that feels too heavy to hold.You are not broken.Your body is trying to protect you.And healing might be closer than you think.If this episode resonates with you, please share it.You never know who needs to hear this today.Lori's links to all the stuffInsta: Interconnected_forest_therapyFacebook: InterconnectedForestTherapyWebsite: https://nwaforesttherapy.com/Book your own private or group session or join one already scheduled: https://www.forestbathingfinder.com/guide-profile/interconnectedft/To book an in person or distance reiki session with me: https://stan.store/interconnectedreiki🌐 Resources and support: https://LogansVoice.org
