BodyTalk Without Borders: A Journey of Healing

Like we learned in Peru, BodyTalk transcends language—a deep human connection emerges through the innate wisdom of the BodyMind.

An Inspiring Expedition

In October 2017, we embarked on a transformative journey to Nepal, Bhutan, and the Himalayas. Led by Dr. Janet Galipo and Holly Steflik, our group included:

• Certified BodyTalk Practitioners (CBP)

• A Tibetan scholar

• A Doctor of Chinese Medicine from Bhutan

Healing Communities in Need

Nepal, still recovering from the 2015 earthquake and 2017 flood, lacks essential healthcare services. Our diverse team of doctors and therapists provided free holistic care to Nepalese and Tibetan refugees, addressing:

• Digestive issues

• Lung conditions

• Knee & back pain

• Fatigue & low energy

• Trauma from immigration and natural disasters

A Land of Beauty & Resilience

Nepal’s landscape varies from urban centers to the snow-peaked Himalayas. We spent most of our time in Kathmandu and the rural lower Himalayas, surrounded by stunning yellow mustard fields.

Serving Tibetan Refugees

We began our work with Tibetan refugees escaping oppression in China. Generous donors provided Chinese herbs and natural remedies to support immune health, digestion, stress relief, and parasite prevention.

It was a beautiful and profoundly moving experience.
