The Spiritually Curious Therapist
The Spiritually Curious Therapist podcast is an exploration of the intersection between spirituality and healing in the context of psychotherapy and other healing arts practices. Hosted by Jodi Silverman, Psychotherapist, Reiki Practitioner and Consciousness Guide. Jodi is wildly curious about the human journey towards wholeness and seeks to understand all the ways in which human beings learn, heal and grow. Each episode will dive into conversations with fellow therapists, spiritual teachers and thought leaders with a few solo episodes interspersed with the goal of exploring how the therapist's spiritual practice impacts their identity as a healer.

When Symptoms Speak: Homeopathy, Safety, and the Intelligence of the Body
In this episode of The Spiritually Curious Therapist, I’m joined by Lauren Messina, a board-certified classical homeopath whose mission is healing generations one family at a time.
Lauren shares her deeply personal journey into homeopathy, shaped by a lifetime of chronic illness, autoimmune diagnoses, and a profound desire to approach healing differently, both for herself and for her children. What unfolds is a powerful conversation about the body’s innate intelligence, the meaning behind symptoms, and how true healing happens when we stop suppressing signals and start listening.
Together, we explore how homeopathy works as a whole-person system of medicine, addressing mental, emotional, physical, and even spiritual layers of experience. Lauren explains the Law of Similars in accessible terms and describes how individualized remedies gently signal the body to restore balance—much like helping the nervous system recognize safety after long-standing misfires.
From grief manifesting as physical illness, to why chronic symptoms require patience and skilled case management, this episode bridges homeopathy with nervous system regulation, trauma-informed care, and relational healing. It’s a conversation especially resonant for therapists, healers, and anyone curious about approaches that honor the body’s wisdom rather than override it.
In this episode, we explore:
- What homeopathy is—and what it isn’t
- Why symptoms are messengers, not enemies
- How chronic illness reflects imbalance rather than failure
- The role of safety, regulation, and collaboration in healing
- Why individualized care matters (and protocol approaches often miss the mark)
- How homeopathy complements psychotherapy and nervous-system-based work
- The spiritual and generational ripple effects of true healing
Lauren also shares insights into her clinical process, the importance of patience in chronic healing, and why homeopathy often finds people exactly when they’re ready.
