33: Why is self-love like riding a bicycle and what has this got to do with your health and healing? A conversation with Alexander Practitioner - John Stevenson
Wednesday, March 26, 2025 • Duration 45:22
John Stevenson is a UK based Transformational Coach.
“True health” he says, “is not simply the absence of illness, but a vibrant state of harmony between body, mind, and spirit”.
He provides his clients with insights, tools and techniques that help them unlock their body’s natural ability to heal and thrive.
John draws both from his own experiences of overcoming personal and health challenges and his training in the Alexander Technique and Energy Alignment Method.
By integrating these two John offers a comprehensive approach that addresses both physical and energetic blockages.
It was one moment in John’s life that changed everything for him and started him on this journey.
John was loaded into an ambulance, struggling to breathe, gripped by fear, and then suddenly—relief. A paramedic inserted a cannula into the back of his hand, and moments later, he felt an icy liquid traveling through his veins. Instantly, his asthma disappeared. But when we he looked, the cannula wasn’t connected to anything.
That’s when he realized the truth: his mind had done it. He had imagined the freezing liquid flowing through him, and his body responded by healing itself.
This moment changed his life. It showed him the untapped power we all have—the ability to shift our reality and take control of our health with just our thoughts.
In this Episode John offers a unique Alexander based perspective on this. We talk about :
- - The fractal cell/body/boundary perspective.
- - The nervous system and regulation of it.
- - Balance tuning through regulating our high and lower frequencies.
- - The healing paradox.
- - Self-love. It is easy but it’s not, it is one of the hardest things to do.
The basis of John’s work is getting people on that knife edge or bike ride of self-love so that they are able to heal themselves or to defend their boundaries in a particular moment.

32 : The truth about the link between your mind and your health and healing.
Wednesday, March 19, 2025 • Duration 50:51
We have more control over our bodies and our lives than we realise. This requires us being able to exercise our minds in the right way.
To harness the superpower of the mind we need to move away from freak out which is how we are naturally wired.
If you are sick, the mind can really help you heal, or it can create more harm.
In this Episode we talk through how to engage the mind to work with the body, how to harness the superpower of the mind and how to work with the freak out.
To paraphrase Pearl Buck :
“Rather than setting our minds up in such a way that we become fearful of the contents of our own consciousness, blocking out anything that is less than 100 percent positive, we might resolve to develop a friendlier attitude toward ourselves and our thoughts and emotions, trusting in our inherent goodness.”

31 : The important role of acceptance in your life and your healing
Wednesday, March 12, 2025 • Duration 44:36
You cannot create health until you can be honest about your current reality.
In fact, we can’t create anything until we are 100% real (with compassionate awareness) about exactly where we are at and what is TRULY going on RIGHT now !
This means we cannot bypass, deny or avoid the painful truth of our situation – ALL of our situation.
Acceptance requires the courage to permit the negative to inform our understanding without it defining our approach to the future.
It is the balance between full acceptance of where we are at (sick) but holding the vision of where we want to be (healthy).
This journey requires us to have full insight and acceptance of our internal state and our role in this without blaming ourselves.
It also requires reflection and acceptance of our outside world – our relationships, our jobs, how we live in the world and how this might need to change in order to help ourselves heal.

30 : Do you have cancer ? Does a loved one have cancer ? Are you scared of getting cancer ? If yes this Episode is for you
Wednesday, March 5, 2025 • Duration 54:52
Cancer is on the rise globally.
In this Episode we :
Take a brief look at what cancer is and why it runs riot in some people and not others.
Why it is on the increase - Cancer is a complex disease influenced by a mixture of factors. We attempt to answer this question from our perspective by discussing:
The role of chronic (long term) emotional and psychological stress
Upset, fear, worry, anxiety, depression.
The perception of not having control and a sense of being wounded.
Unhealthy relationships or lack of connection.
Fears and anxieties around failure and rejection.
Organ energetics around cancer.
The Missing Link in Your Healing Podcast has the goal of highlighting the possible Missing Links in our Health and Healing.
In this Episode what we discuss in terms of the underlying Psycho/Social Causes and Organ Energetics could be important information not often found out there.
If you have cancer, want to support someone who has cancer, or you are scared of getting cancer then this Episode is for you.
Refer back to these Epsiodes :
Ep 3 : Hidden stress - What is it and how does it make you sick
Ep 4: Are your unconscious beliefs and coping mechanisms making you sick
Ep 5: What is the affect of the stress response on your body?
Ep 7 : How limiting beliefs make us sick and how working with them can
Ep 10 : Bringing the unconscious into conscious awareness
Ep 11 : Fear is the greatest obstacle to healing
29 : Is there a cancer personality?
Thursday, February 27, 2025 • Duration 27:26
The answer is neither a simple yes or no. It is futile to reduce the cause of cancer or any other illness to a single origin.
BUT while we cannot say that any personality type causes cancer, certain personality features definitely increase the risk because they are more likely to generate psychological stress.
PNI and other research has shown that emotional experiences can be translated into potential damage in our bodies.
Repression (pushing down feelings for example), being unable to say no and lack of awareness of one's anger, for example, make it much more likely that a person will find themselves in situations where emotions are unexpressed, needs are ignored, and gentleness is exploited.
These situations are stress inducing, whether or not we are aware of it and repeated and multiplied over the years, this has the potential of harming the balance in our bodies and immune system.
So - It is stress-not personality per say-that undermines our bodies physiological balance and immune defences, predisposing us to disease or reducing our resistance to it.
Physiological stress, the stress on the body then, is the link between personality traits and disease.
Much of what we call personality is not actually a fixed set of traits, only coping mechanisms acquired in childhood, habitual defence mechanisms, a response to our external environment unconsciously adopted to keep us safe.
Certain traits-otherwise known as coping styles-magnify the risk for illness by increasing the likelihood of chronic stress.
People often identify with these habituated patterns, believing them to be an indispensable part of their personality.
Take a listen for more.

28 : Healing Allergies
Thursday, February 20, 2025 • Duration 50:20
Allergies are a broad topic, so we focus in this Episode on skin type allergies, BUT this information applies to ALL allergies. The basic underlying tenents are the same.
What we offer in this Episode is a road map, not a definitive answer. A map that guides and gives you a place to start from.
Allergies are hypersensitivity reactions - to any number of things – something your body sees as an enemy and your immune system completely overreacts to. The body overreacts to something that isn’t normally a problem.
When addressing allergies a mistake we can make is to focus solely on the physical and not look at the mental, emotional and energetic. We absolutely can’t by-pass the body, but we also can’t by-pass the mind and emotions.
Loretta takes a detailed look in this Episode at allergies from an organ energetics, psychological and spiritual perspective. This information is invaluable and not usually easily attained in a summary such as in this Episode.
She talks through all the organs and energetics involved in an allergy reaction and how you can to use this information to help yourself heal.
Signs and symptoms are feedback, they are not random or a punishment, but rather a message from our bodies that something needs to be changed, integrated or healed.
The message can be really scary, even terrifying if we have allergies that go anaphylactic. But “terrifying” can drive you to get to the source, to the bottom of it, especially if Doctors can’t find anything wrong with you. If we are prepared to listen to the message it will guide you as to what to do next and the first steps to take.
We also cover :
· - There is no one size fits all treatment plan.
· - How the intuition will guide the next step but why we can’t or don’t successfully access and use it to heal because of unknown resistance. Resistance is discussed in detail.
· - There is no avoiding the parts that are really uncomfortable if we want to heal.

27 : Healing the past to heal the body
Thursday, February 20, 2025 • Duration 57:40
When we get sick our bodies are giving us feedback, a message that something is out of kilter and needs to change.
This could be the food we eat, the lifetsyle we lead, a toxic relationship or any number of things and actually its never just one thing. Healing is multifaceted.
Also, often the feedback from the body is an indication that something is playing out unconsciously. If it is unconcious, we will consciously not know about it, but our bodies are sending us a message about this.
In this Episode we talk through an Energy Retrieval Process as a way to uncover unconscious triggers from past trauma and how this helps us heal physically.
We need to integrate ALL of ourselves in order to heal, so those parts of ourselves left behind in the past or a trauma need to be brought back and integrated.
When we have a trauma that impacts us mentally, emotionally, and spiritually we leave a portion of our energy in the event. If this is the case any therapies or processes we engage in to heal ourselves, will not be the whole picture if we do not bring back this energy from the past.
Antoinette, co-host of this podcast, had been suffering from an allergic reaction for quite a long time. At times it goes anaphylactic. So of course, she knew that her body is sending a message that something is out of kilter. She applied all the knowledge and tools that we put out to help herself heal this, but the allergy continued. This is because she only managed to get to the unconscious trigger once Loretta did an Energy Retrieval Process with her to bring back the part of her energy that was left behind in two past traumas.
This might sound very way out to many people. Antoinette was quite sceptical herself, but Loretta has seen amazing results in her practice when using this process to help her clients physically heal. So, Antoinette decided to let Loretta take her through this process.
The result was astounding !
We talk through all of this in this Episode. We share Antoinette’s Energy Retrieval Process and how it unveiled the unconscious trauma triggers from the past. Antoinette also shares how this positively assisted her in a BIG way.
26 : Boundaries and autonomy are essential for health and healing
Wednesday, February 5, 2025 • Duration 54:23
Illness not only has a history, but it tells a history. It is a culmination of a lifelong history of struggle for self .
Mind and spirit can survive grievous physical injury, but repeatedly we see that the physical body begins to succumb when psychic integrity and freedom are jeopardised .
In the final analysis, disease is a boundary question.
When we look at the research that predicts who is likely to get ill, we will find that the people at greatest risk are those who have experienced the most severe boundary invasions before they were able to construct an autonomous sense of self. )Autonomy is the development of an internal centre of control).
(Paraphrased from Gabor Mate’s book : When the body says no)
In this Episode Loretta and I discuss in detail what is meant by boundaries and why, by and large, humans struggle to set and maintain boundaries.
We then relate this to getting sick and helping ourselves heal. Most importantly we discuss how the immune confusion that leads to disease reflects a failure to distinguish self from non-self, healing has to involve establishing or reclaiming the boundaries of an autonomous self.
The two books by Gabor that we mention are :
When the Body Says No and The Myth of Normal.

25 : How to use your intuition to help yourself heal
Wednesday, January 29, 2025 • Duration 47:38
Healing is multifaceted and different for everybody. That is why it is so important to be able to access and use our intuition in order to play a role in our own healing.
Also, if we do not access our intuition to guide us on our healing path, we are at the mercy of other people telling us what to do.
In this Episode Loretta and I discuss :
- How to know the difference between intuition and ego. They can easily be confused. Reality is trickier than we realise.
- Intuition is the non-obvious and does not happen in a way that we would expect it to. It is seemingly contradictory to common sense. If we want to hone our intuition we need to keep rethinking the obvious route.
- Following intuition is the emotionally difficult thing to do and requires us to accept psychological stress.
- In order to access intuition, we need to rewire our brain away from the route we normally take. It requires a leap outside of our normal perceptive.
- Intuition shows the way step by step.
We provide many real-life examples of the application of this to healing ourselves.
If you have been on a spiritual / self-healing path already you may think you have this intuition thing taped - but after listening to this Episode you may come away with another perspective or new insights.
We would love to get your feedback, comments or any questions on this Episode.

24 : How to access your intuition
Wednesday, January 22, 2025 • Duration 38:42
Intuition is the ability to understand something without needing to think about it, a sense of knowing how to react spontaneously without knowing why.
It is your inner GPS and a bridge between where you are now and where you would love to be. The inner voice of your spirit that guides you to your next step to create what you would love.
It transcends reason but does not contradict it.
Intuition is not only for the chosen few. Anyone can learn how to access it, you don’t need any special gift, talent or mystical ability.
In this Episode Loretta takes us through what we need to do to access our intuition and shares a simple structured process to do this.
Being able to access our intuition is critical to knowing what steps to take to help ourselves heal.
