Ep 22 | Reclaiming Pleasure and Power with Tamu Thomas
<p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Today I'm bringing you a conversation with Tamu Thomas.</p><p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Our conversation wandered through her own explorations of embodiment and her practice of Non-Linear Movement, the role of pleasure, sensuality and joy in women's wellbeing, reclaiming power and sovereignty, and channelling our energy in a generative way, even as we live in oppressive systems.</p><p class="" data-rte-preserve-empty="true" style="white-space:pre-wrap;"></p><p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;"><strong>ABOUT TAMU</strong></p><p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Tamu Thomas is an emotional well-being coach, writer, workshop facilitator, podcaster and Non-Linear Movement practitioner who helps over-functioning, overworking, high achieving women fall in love with themselves so they can make powerful choices about how they live, love and work.</p><p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Tamu’s work combines somatics, social work and spirituality with science and soulful systems. She is person-centred, evidence-based, trauma-informed, human-paced, nurturing, intuitive, loving and playful. Tamu’s holistic approach to supporting the bodies, minds and experience of her clients makes her work nurturing, deep and unique – just like her.</p><p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Tamu’s work is informed by her background of sixteen years in social work, somatic coach training, her love of behavioural neuroscience and polyvagal theory, positive psychology, spirituality and joy. Tamu combines these modalities to create a multifaceted body of work that helps her clients stop using anxiety as a productivity tool and stop normalising burnout. Tamu’s work helps her clients understand who they are so they may begin to tend to their needs, feel safe in their bodies, befriend themselves and begin to enjoy who they are.</p><p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Tamu supports her clients and workshop attendees understand themselves as valuable and worthy of caring for themselves. This enables them to prioritise their own well-being and life satisfaction alongside success and achievement.</p><p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Her mission is to help women enhance how they live, love and work by recovering from their addiction to toxic productivity.</p><p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Find more of her work:</p><p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;"><a href="https://www.livethreesixty.com/">Website</a> <br><a href="https://www.instagram.com/livethreesixty/">Instagram</a></p><p class="" data-rte-preserve-empty="true" style="white-space:pre-wrap;"></p><p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;"><strong>WORK WITH ME</strong></p><p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;"><a href="https://ellebowerjohnston.substack.com/">Be the first to hear about trial breathwork sessions</a></p><p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;"><a href="https://ellebowerjohnston.substack.com/">Download the Radical Rest Studio</a></p><p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;"><a href="https://www.anotherpractice.com/offerings">One-to-One Embodiment Guidance</a></p><p class="" data-rte-preserve-empty="true" style="white-space:pre-wrap;"></p><p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;"><strong>LINKS & CREDITS</strong></p><p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Drop me an email - <a href="mailto:waywardbodies@protonmail.com">waywardbodies@protonmail.com</a></p><p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Find more of my work at <a href="http://anotherpractice.com/">ellebowerjohnston.com</a></p><p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;"><a href="http://ellebowerjohnston.substack.com/">Join the mailing list</a>, my other favourite way to communicate</p><p class="" data-rte-preserve-empty="true" style="white-space:pre-wrap;"></p><p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">This episode is edited by the radiant Joeli Kelly, with eternal thanks and praises.</p>
