The Spiritually Curious Therapist is a podcast exploring the intersection of nervous system science, mental health, spirituality, and healing.


Hosted by Jodi Silverman, LCSW, this show is for therapists, healers, and curious humans who sense that true healing happens below the level of insight alone. Through thoughtful conversations and solo reflections, we explore trauma, chronic pain and illness, altered states, regulation, meaning-making, and what it really takes to help the nervous system feel safe enough to change.


This is a space for grounded mysticism, where evidence-based practice meets soul-level wisdom, and where healing is approached with curiosity, compassion, and respect for the body’s innate intelligence.


Whether you’re a clinician expanding beyond talk therapy or someone on your own healing path, this podcast invites you to listen differently — to symptoms, to stories, and to what’s asking to be integrated.

  • Notice What You Notice: Curiosity, the Goddess, and the Intelligence of the Heart with Cynthia Abulafia
    Mar 23 2026

    In this deeply expansive and grounding conversation, I sit down with author, educator, and yoga therapist Cynthia Abulafia to explore what it truly means to come home to the heart.

    Cynthia’s work bridges sacred texts, embodiment practices, and the often-overlooked wisdom of the divine feminine. Her debut book, Embodying the Goddess: How to Awaken Curiosity and Reverence on the Spiritual Path, invites us to question the ways spirituality has been shaped by separation—and to rediscover a path rooted in wholeness, curiosity, and lived experience.

    Together, we explore:

    • What non-duality actually means (beyond the buzzword)
    • Why many spiritual frameworks subtly reinforce a sense of separation and “not enoughness”
    • The difference between being “triggered” vs. activated—and why language matters
    • How curiosity becomes a healing force that allows us to slow down, feel, and integrate
    • The concept of “cleaning the instrument of the heart” as a living spiritual practice
    • How to recognize the difference between reverence and compulsion in our daily lives
    • The role of the body and the earth in reconnecting us to wholeness
    • Why so much of what we’re seeing right now—personally and collectively—is a breakdown of old paradigms

    One of my favorite takeaways from this conversation is Cynthia’s simple but powerful invitation:

    👉 “Notice what you notice.”

    Because when we begin there—without judgment, without rushing to fix—we open the door to something deeper:
    curiosity, presence, and ultimately, a return to the heart.

    This episode is for you if you’re:

    • Feeling disconnected from yourself and craving a deeper sense of embodiment
    • Curious about the intersection of spirituality, nervous system work, and healing
    • Ready to shift from striving and fixing into listening, sensing, and allowing

  • Widening Your Window of Tolerance: How the Nervous System Learns Safety - Solo Episode
    Mar 15 2026

    In this solo episode of The Spiritually Curious Therapist, I explore one of the most important concepts in nervous system healing: the window of tolerance.

    I realized it's something I don't talk about enough and with so much information circulating about nervous system regulation, it can be easy to feel overwhelmed trying to figure out what actually works. I

    So in this episode, I break down what we’re really talking about when we talk about “regulating the nervous system” and why the goal isn’t to stay calm all the time, but to expand the range of experiences your system can hold.

    You’ll learn how the nervous system moves between activation and shutdown, why these responses are protective rather than pathological, and how small experiences of safety can gradually widen the window of tolerance over time.

    Drawing on Polyvagal Theory, trauma-informed somatic work, and years of clinical experience, I explain why healing isn’t about thinking your way into regulation, it’s about experience, sensation, relationship, and repetition.

    I also offers a simple practice you can try immediately to begin supporting your nervous system.

    This episode is for therapists, healers, and anyone curious about how the body and nervous system shape our emotional and physical well-being.

  • When the Nervous System is Stuck: Neurodivergince, Chronic Illness & the Path Back to Regulation with Micah Saviet, MSW, LCSW-C, NBC-HWC
    Mar 9 2026

    In this episode of The Spiritually Curious Therapist, I sit down with therapist, coach, and researcher Micah Saviet, MSW, LCSW-C, NBC-HWC to explore the powerful intersection of nervous system regulation, Neurodivergence, trauma, and chronic illness. Micah is a therapist and board-certified health and wellness coach who specializes in working with adults at the intersection of trauma, ADHD, and chronic illness. His integrative somatic approach draws from mindfulness, energy psychology, emotional freedom techniques (EFT), brainspotting, somatic experiencing, and parts work to support lasting healing and nervous system regulation.

    Micah shares his personal story of living with ADHD and navigating years of unexplained chronic illness before discovering the role of nervous system dysregulation and limbic system patterns in driving both emotional and physical symptoms. Together, we dive into why traditional top-down therapies sometimes fall short, and why body-based approaches that work directly with the nervous system can create deeper and more sustainable healing.

    We also explore how many neurodivergent adults spend years compensating and masking before their systems begin to break down, and how therapy can help restore regulation, self-trust, and embodied awareness. If you’re interested in the connection between the nervous system, spirituality, embodiment, and trauma healing, this episode will open up an entirely new perspective.

    Micah is also the co-author of the upcoming book:

    Flourishing with Adult ADHD: The Evidence-Based Guide to Client Wellbeing for Therapists and Coaches

    The book offers a strength-based, research-informed framework to help clinicians support wellbeing, agency, and self-determination in neurodivergent adults.
