The Marie Embodied Podcast

What once appeared stable is being uprooted, people are not okay, and we're in for a bumpy ride.

While I don't have all the answers about how we can collectively deal with a crumbling empire, I do have insights from a somatic therapy and herbalism lens about how we can tend to our bodies and nervous systems while supporting our communities during tumultuous times. In this solo episode I explore the concept of self-parenting and stepping up as the adults in our lives to set boundaries around media consumption, and nourishing ourselves through food, movement, sleep, connection, pleasure, and community. 

I also discuss four herbs that I'm loving right now and how you can work with them to reduce stress, ground your nervous system, soothe anxiety, release pent up emotions, recover from burnout, and stay anchored to your heart in times of darkness.

What is The Marie Embodied Podcast?

The Marie Embodied Podcast is a space to slow down, listen inward, and reconnect with the wisdom of the body. Hosted by, somatic therapist and clinical herbalist, Marie Zak, this show explores embodiment through somatic practices, herbal medicine, nervous system awareness, and other healing modalities that support coming home to yourself.

Marie explores embodiment not as a concept, but as a lived experience. Through conversations, teachings, and practical insights, you will learn how to listen to your body, build capacity, and cultivate presence, resilience, and aliveness.

This podcast is for those who want to feel more grounded, resourced, and at home in themselves, and for anyone curious about somatic work, herbalism, animism, and the many modalities that support embodied healing.
