Embracing Holistic Healing: A Journey with Shev Segul on Bush Radio 89.5FM


On a recent episode of The Morning Cruise on Bush Radio 89.5FM, listeners were treated to an inspiring conversation with Shev Segul, a registered counselor and holistic practitioner. Her story—of overcoming personal struggles, blending counseling with alternative healing modalities, and challenging mental health stigma—offers profound insights for anyone navigating life’s challenges. Here’s a glimpse into her journey and wisdom.

From Sound Engineering to Soul Healing

Shev Segul’s path to holistic counseling was far from linear. Initially pursuing her passion for music as a sound engineer, she faced setbacks in a male-dominated industry and battled severe depression. “I felt lost, suicidal, and disconnected from purpose,” she shared. A turning point came when a doctor’s harsh truth—“If you keep ending back here, no one will take you seriously”—propelled her toward self-discovery.

Her journey led her to PSYK, a modality focused on reprogramming subconscious beliefs. “We all operate from beliefs like ‘I’m not good enough,’” she explained. Through PSYK, Shev learned to rewrite these narratives, sparking a passion for empowering others.

Blending Counseling with Holistic Practices

As a registered counselor, Shev Segul merges traditional therapy with holistic techniques like life activations, crystal healing, and Reiki. Unlike conventional counseling, her approach avoids “re-traumatizing” clients by dwelling on the past. Instead, she identifies limiting beliefs and uses protocols to create new neural pathways.Action is the whole point of change. We can talk about doing something, but doing it is what matters.”

Her counseling skills—active listening, compassion, and creating safe spaces—complement her holistic work. “It’s about allowing clients to find their own answers,” she emphasized.

Breaking Mental Health Stigmas in South Africa

Growing up in a society where mental health struggles are often dismissed as “witchcraft” or weakness, Shev Segul advocates fiercely for normalizing therapy. “Counseling isn’t just for ‘weak’ people—it’s a space to slow down and reconnect with yourself,” she said.

She highlighted the cultural barriers many face, especially in communities where seeking help is taboo. Her advice? Start small. “Take a moment to breathe. Know you’re not alone, and there are tools and people who can help.”

Words of Empowerment

For those feeling stuck, Shev Segul’s message is clear: Start with self-belief.“The most life-changing shift comes from realizing you are good enough. Your thoughts aren’t always your own—rewrite them.”She encourages reaching out, whether through counseling, holistic practices, or leaning on community. “You don’t have to do it alone,” she reminded listeners.
