Awakening the Healer Within Through Somatic Healing and Intuitive Energy Mastery With Marbeth Dunn
MarBeth Dunn is a leading voice in the world of somatic healing and intuitive energy mastery. For more than 35 years, she has guided empaths, sensitives, and high-achieving women to release stress, anxiety, and trauma by reconnecting with their bodies and learning to regulate their nervous systems. As the author of Awaken the Healer Within: Overcome Stress, Anxiety, and Illness, and a featured expert in several upcoming transformational films, MarBeth Dunn embodies the message that true healing begins within.
Who is MarBeth Dunn?
MarBeth Dunn is more than an energy healer—she is a mentor, author, intuitive, and spiritual guide whose journey has inspired thousands. Her early career as an artist and painter in Haiti gave her a deep connection to presence and awareness, which later became the foundation of her healing work. She has been featured on Fox, NBC, CBS, and The CW, and her story and methods have been shared in international films such as Bernie’s Journey, The Frequency of Miracles, The Art of Manifestation, and The Frequency of Longevity.
From Artist to Healer: MarBeth Dunn’s Journey
As a child, MarBeth Dunn expressed herself through painting, finding deep joy in the creative process. While living in Haiti for 17 years, her art became both an emotional outlet and a form of meditation. Yet beneath her creativity, she struggled with anxiety, panic attacks, and asthma. These challenges pushed her to search for deeper solutions, ultimately leading her to explore energy work, subconscious communication, and intuitive healing.
What began as a personal quest to understand her own body transformed into a calling to help others release the emotional and energetic blocks holding them back from health and wholeness.
Understanding Somatic Healing
Somatic healing, as practiced by MarBeth Dunn, is a body-centered approach that uses the wisdom of the body as a guide for transformation. Instead of viewing symptoms as problems, somatic healing sees them as messages—signals from the body asking to be heard. Through breathwork, grounding, visualization, and other practices, individuals learn to regulate their nervous system, release stored trauma, and restore balance.
Her work emphasizes that healing doesn’t require reliving painful stories. Instead, the body communicates directly, and with the right support, stress and anxiety can be released naturally.
Awaken the Healer Within: The Book
In her book Awaken the Healer Within: Overcome Stress, Anxiety, and Illness, MarBeth Dunn offers readers practical tools to unlock the body’s innate wisdom. The book includes a bonus chapter with 21 somatic healing exercises designed to help individuals reduce stress, process emotions, and reclaim a sense of safety.
One of the central messages of the book is the importance of safety. Healing cannot occur if the body feels threatened. By learning to create safety, whether through grounding, breathwork, or self-compassion, individuals open the door to deep and lasting transformation.
The Body’s Superpower
MarBeth Dunn teaches that the body itself is a powerful ally in healing. Its “superpowers” include the ability to regulate stress, restore energy, and guide us back into alignment. She shares techniques such as:
🟦Breathwork to calm the nervous system.
🟦Shaking and movement to release built-up energy.
🟦Qigong and Kundalini practices to balance and restore flow.
🟦Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) to dissolve limiting beliefs and release stress.
🟦Muscle testing to uncover what the body is truly communicating.
Her philosophy reminds us that when we listen to the body, we access a roadmap to emotional freedom and inner peace.
A Pivotal Awakening Moment
A transformative moment in MarBeth Dunn’s journey came when she discovered A Course in Miracles. She realized that her thoughts had power—that by changing her thoughts, she could change her life. This understanding shifted her from living in fear to living in alignment with source energy. She now teaches others to recognize themselves as pure awareness, connected to something far greater than the physical body.
MarBeth Dunn’s Pearl of Wisdom
MarBeth often shares a powerful refrain from A Course in Miracles:
“I am not a body. I am free. I am still as God created me.”
This wisdom reflects her core belief: we are eternal beings, far greater than our physical form. By embracing self-love, awareness, and connection to source, we step into our true power.
