What if your mental health journey could be transformed by integrating mind, body, and spirit? Join us this week on the Everyday Shaman as we sit down with Karre Kern, a remarkable therapist and mindfulness coach whose diverse career paths have beautifully converged into a holistic approach to healing. From her roots in massage therapy and theater to advanced clinical social work, Karre uniquely combines these experiences to offer deep, multifaceted care. We'll also learn about her lesser-known aspiration to officiate weddings in Maine, adding another heartfelt layer to her story.
Karre's personal narrative takes a touching turn as she shares the journey of her daughter, a nurturing and compassionate soul who balances motherhood with her role as a nanny. This chapter of Karre's life highlights the profound impact of early influences, including a pivotal encounter with a hospice social worker that set her on the path to clinical social work. Now residing in Sweden, Karre continues her mission, providing remote support and demonstrating the power of telehealth in bridging distances to offer care and support.
Throughout our conversation, we'll uncover the significant rise in client needs during the COVID-19 pandemic and the increasingly vital role of mindfulness in today's divided society. Karre sheds light on the challenges and benefits of diagnosing mental health conditions in a digital landscape, advocating for a balanced approach combining medication and natural remedies. Discover how practices like breathwork, mindfulness, and tapping are seamlessly integrated into her social work, offering flexible and accessible healing modalities for clients worldwide. Don’t miss this episode packed with insights and inspiration for a more mindful and balanced life.
