Curious about sound healing and your energy centers? Sound healing is an effective holistic practice for stress, anxiety, and depression, shown to reduce symptoms by 20 to 30 percent. What most people do not understand is how sound healing actually works and how it stimulates your energy centers, the small houses of energy found in your brain, throat, heart, stomach, and hips, known according to Kemetic principles as kara, or karkar, the true origin of what later became known as chakras. When targeted through specific Hz frequencies, sound can relax the nervous system and help the body release and heal itself.

Join me July 19th from 10am to 11am, held virtually. You will walk away with a worksheet, tips on building your own calming sound based playlist, and a real understanding of the healing power of sound and music therapy.

Tickets are $15 and available at www.honeybenatural.com/books

The Spiritual Body is one of ™ within Rooted Function Theory™ and it does not sit outside your healing. It sits at the center of it.
This is where purpose lives. Where inner knowing speaks. Where intuition is not a bonus feature but a guiding system built into who you are. Healing that bypasses the Spiritual Body misses the point entirely because you cannot reach liberation while treating your spirit like an afterthought.
In this video I am breaking down what the Spiritual Body is, how it functions within Rooted Function Theory™, and why integrating spirituality into your healing plan changes everything about how you move through transformation. Not as a separate practice. As part of the plan.
The ™ Healing Book and the More or Less Oracle Deck are available now in digital format or through our in-house printing. Both are tools built to support this kind of full body, spirit centered healing work.

Hi, I’m Isha, your holistic therapist, and here is your Rooted Function Somatic Reset for the Emotional Body, Video 3.

In ™ framework, the emotional body holds the feelings that your nervous system has not yet processed. When you are in a hard conversation and those feelings start to take over, that is your emotional body signaling that it needs support before you can move forward.

The first thing you can do is say I need a moment. That is not avoidance. That is regulation. Naming that you need to pause is your nervous system already doing the work.

Then you settle before you try to solve anything.

Joe Corley, M.Ed, LPC teaches us to Orient yourself in the room. Notice where you are, what is around you, and let your body register that you are safe right now. Take a full inhale and let your exhale be longer than your inhale. That longer exhale is what signals your nervous system to come down.

Once you are regulated, you come back. That is when you can speak your feelings clearly and name the impact of what happened without your body running the conversation.
Settle before you solve.

Join Joe for the RESET Retreat happening June 2026, men need a RESET too 🙌🏾

Emotional Body | Somatic Reset Series | Video 2

Your feelings aren’t the problem. Getting stuck in them is.
In this video, we’re going deep into the emotional body — what it is, why feelings get trapped in the body, and what’s actually keeping you from moving through them.

We cover:
🌬️ The power of breath to complete the stress response
🔄 The Complete Circuit Breathing Scan — breath travels in from the navel, up the spine, across the forehead, down the arms, down the legs, all the way to the feet — scanning for pain, tension, and areas holding stress
💪🏾 Progressive Muscle Relaxation to help your nervous system finish what it started
🔥 Why so many men exit their emotions through anger — and what gets buried underneath it
Special guest Joe Corley of The Real U Counseling joins the conversation — working with men and couples to go beneath the surface of what anger is covering.

Rooted Function Somatic Reset: Emotional Body | Video 1

In this video, we’re breaking down what the Emotional Body is and how your feelings impact your daily functioning, choices, and relationships.

🌸 For my ladies:
Try this somatic check-in: name the feeling, notice where you sense it in your body, and add one moment of gratitude for how your body communicates with you.

🖤 For my gentlemen:
Joe Corley, LPC of The Real U Counseling, is talking about why “performing” keeps you from regulating and truly connecting. Here are 3 signs you may be performing instead of feeling:

1. You say “I’m good” or “I’m fine” while your body feels tight, restless, or heavy.

2. You focus on looking strong and in control instead of naming what’s actually happening inside.

3. You avoid quiet moments or emotions that make you feel vulnerable, staying busy or “on” instead.

🌱 Stay tuned for this 5-part series on understanding and resetting the emotional body through the Rooted Function framework.

💬 If you need someone to talk to:
• Express Yourself Black Man offers mental health resources for men of color
• Therapy for Black Girls and Zencare are great options for women seeking aligned support

Your thoughts are not just in your head. They live in your body.
Every thought you think activates a physiological response. Your nervous system does not know the difference between a memory and a present-moment threat.

So when your mind loops, your body loops with it — tension, shutdown, hypervigilance, numbing. That is not weakness. That is biology doing exactly what it was designed to do.

The Thought Body Loop guide walks you through exactly how this works and what to do about it. Grab it at HoneyBeNatural.com/books.

And if you are ready to go deeper with a licensed holistic somatic therapist, current openings are: every other Thurs. at 4 PM
every Tues. at 5 PM
every other Wed. at 5:30 PM
Fridays at 1:30 PM

Rumination pulls you into the past. Worry drags you into the future. And your nervous system responds to both like they are happening right now.

That is the thought body loop, and it is one of the most overlooked reasons people stay stuck in overthinking.
I created a $7 guide to help you actually understand what is happening in your body when your mind won’t stop.

Inside you will find real tools you can use to stop the overthinking cycle, processing questions to help you go deeper with yourself, and a framework for building your own resource plan so you know exactly what to reach for when it starts.

Rooted Function Somatic RESET | Cognitive Body (Video 4 of 5)
When your thoughts won’t turn off, your cognitive body needs sensation more than more thinking.
In today’s reset, we’re using simple tools to cool the mind and soften the edges:
• Eye socket and eyebrow massage to release forehead tension
• Breath work set to classical music to slow looping thoughts
• V-arms that cross into a hug so your body remembers it’s held
• Ice on the eyebrows and wrists to cool an overheated nervous system
• And “ice cream for the internal” as a playful reminder to soften from the inside out 🍦
Save this to come back any time your brain is doing too much.
The full 5-part Rooted Function Somatic RESET series for the Cognitive Body is on the HoneyBeNatural Institute YouTube playlist.
