summary Dr Coral Westaway (Video); Why Should Modern Psychology Embrace Energy and Spirituality?   In this conversation Dr Naomi Murphy and David Jones meet with Dr. Coral Westaway and explore the world of energy psychology, its techniques like EFT, and its integration with traditional psychology. She shares her personal journey, the importance of holistic health, and how energy work can transform mental health practices. Dr Coral Westaway is a Clinical Psychologist and Energy Psychotherapist with over 20 years of experience at the intersection of psychology, spirituality, and holistic health. Known as The Energy Psychologist, she brings together doctoral - level clinical training with energy psychotherapy, conscious connected breathwork, and body practice; creating a bridge between mainstream psychology and the energetic and spiritual dimensions of our lives. Coral's work is rooted in a simple but radical belief: that the body holds our truth, and that real transformation happens not just in the mind, but through the whole system. Her own journey with stage 3+ colon cancer in 2021 deepened this understanding profoundly, and now informs everything she does. Alongside her individual therapy and supervision work, Coral runs The Receiving Revolution : a 7 - week group programme for therapists, psychologists, and helping professionals who chronically overgive. These are the helpers who understand their patterns intellectually but find they cannot shift them at the level of the body and energy. The Receiving Revolution supports them to readdress that imbalance, reconnect with their own wisdom, and build lives and practices that are sustainable and genuinely nourish them. You can find Coral at www.theenergypsychologist.org, and there is a growing library of free sessions for conscious therapists on her YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/@TheEnergyPsychologist.

Each episode offers a blend of personal narrative, professional expertise, and thoughtful analysis, providing listeners with a rare perspective on how people not only survive but can find ways to thrive within extraordinarily challenging environments.
