EP 180 - "Experience Seven Senses and Holistic Healing" With Dr Erica Matluck

In this episode of finding grace I’m joined by  Dr. Erica Matluck who is a modern medicine woman and the creator of Seven Senses, a holistic framework for healing and transformation. She is trained as a Naturopathic doctor, family nurse practitioner, Reiki Master and multidisciplinary yoga instructor. Combining over a decade of experience working in conventional and alternative medicine, she brings a truly holistic lens to wellbeing, addressing the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual aspects of health. Ancient wisdom and Eastern philosophy thread through all of her work, which has been featured in Harpers Bazaar, Mind body green, Well and Good, Vogue and Women’s Health.

We connected via SubStack, I love Dr Erica’s approach and can’t wait to share her today.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

• What “finding grace” means to Erica, and the personal journey that’s brought her to where she is today.
• How her early life experiences shaped her path, and how her work began in the clinical setting.
• Reflections on grief and its lasting impact, as Erica shares the story of losing a parent in childhood.
• A rich conversation on where medicine meets spirituality, and how she integrates both in her practice.
• We discuss the importance of feeling safe in the body and feeling safe in clinical environments.
• Why true healing looks at the whole person, not just the symptoms.
• The challenges and beauty of taking a slower, more holistic path in a fast-paced, quick-fix culture.
• Practical ways to navigate overwhelm in an age of constant information.
• How becoming aware of your patterns and reactions can support deep, transformative healing.
• The importance of addressing core wounds and getting to the root of things on the healing journey.
• Insights into how shame and guilt affect the body and our overall well-being.
• How understanding the chakra system can help us connect with ourselves on a deeper level.
• What’s currently supporting Erica and what’s bringing her joy.

Dr Erica shares all this and more in this expansive episode. I hope you enjoy this as much as I did recording this.
