Julianne Hough recently reaffirmed her support for the controversial “energy work session” that garnered attention in 2020, despite facing criticism and exorcism comparisons. The former 'Dancing With the Stars' contestant addressed the practice during a podcast episode, acknowledging that some labeled her experiences as supernatural and questioned her mental state.
Reflecting on a viral video from five years ago where she underwent energy work with Dr. John Amaral at the World Economic Forum, Hough mentioned the negative reactions she received, including accusations of having demons. She emphasized that energy work has become more widely understood since then, with people recognizing its significance.
In the video, Hough's body exhibited involuntary movements and sounds as Amaral performed the energy work. Despite the initial backlash, Hough shared that the session left her feeling liberated and empowered, enabling her to express herself authentically and confidently.
She highlighted the importance of caring for one's body as a vessel for energy, emphasizing its role in maintaining overall well-being. Additionally, Hough commended Gwyneth Paltrow for her courage in embracing unconventional practices and facing criticism for her 'woo-woo' behaviors, referring to her as a pioneer in the field.
Notably, Hough appeared on Paltrow's show 'The Goop Lab' in early 2020, where Amaral conducted healing sessions on camera. In response to the skepticism surrounding Hough's experiences, her brother Derek Hough defended her, urging individuals to approach the concept of energy work with an open mind and appreciation for its potential benefits.
