Description
Exploring Ways to Wellness delivers alternative healing and natural wellness solutions through authentic conversations and real experiences. Perfect for curious souls seeking complementary therapies and mindful living beyond mainstream wellness advice.
Host Sarah Gorev brings you refreshingly honest chats with practitioners and real people about holistic health approaches that actually work (even for the busiest of lives). From mindfulness to EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique), cold water swimming to sound therapy, she's lifting the veil on evidence-based alternative approaches that can be easily incorporated and even enhance your packed schedule.
Each episode demystifies holistic practices through genuine, no-pressure conversations about what works (and maybe what doesn't). Ideal for people who are intrigued by alternative wellness and natural healing but want real experiences, not just theory. Instead of 'powering through' and reaching exhaustion and burn-out, Sarah explores how these accessible practices can help you reclaim your energy, process past experiences, and find balance - without requiring endless time or resources.
If you're open-minded about exploring holistic wellness solutions but fancy hearing real experiences before diving in, this is your weekly companion for discovering different paths to feeling good again. Join Sarah for down-to-earth conversations about alternative wellness approaches that can transform your daily life.

The end of Season 3 already - can you believe it? In this solo episode, host Sarah Gorev reflects on ten incredible conversations exploring everything from ancient Hawaiian Huna to quantum bioenergetic scans, Pilates to Akashic Records, and the question that's been sitting with her throughout: with all these amazing practices and incredible practitioners, how on earth do you choose what's right for you? Because here's the thing - choice is empowering, yes, but it can also be overwhelming. Anx...
Host Sarah sits down with Marina Beech - Soul Alchemist and Akashic Records practitioner - to explore something Sarah had absolutely no idea about before recording. Even the words sounded strange. But what she discovered was far less woo and far more fascinating than expected. What makes this episode special is where Marina's proof came from. Not faith, not spiritual theory - but a single ten-second moment that dissolved a psychological addiction to alcohol she hadn't admitted to herself, le...

In this grounded conversation, host Sarah Gorev reconnects with Anne from Shape It Up Pilates in Rugby - and Anne brings over 30 years of fitness industry experience to share. What makes this episode special is Anne's straight-talking approach. She runs a business, she's busy, and she'll tell you - she doesn't do an hour of Pilates every day. But she knows exactly what...
When you picture Tai Chi, you probably imagine elderly people in a park moving slowly through graceful forms. But what if I told you it's actually a martial art taught to the Chinese military centuries ago? In this fascinating conversation, host Sarah Gorev chats with Cathy, who started practising Tai Chi at just 14 years old - making her the youngest person in pretty much every class she's attended. What I love about Cathy is how she combines the scientific with the spiritual, weaving...
Have you ever felt inexplicably drawn to pick up a particular stone or crystal? Wondered why certain ones seem to call to you while others don't?
