In this episode, I answer a question a podcast listener asked me, she talks about feeling angry and suffering from anxiety all the time. She has been practicing meditation, breathwork, yoga, and doing other things on her spiritual journey to help with the emotions, but still feels angry and anxious all the time and she wanted to know what more she can do to not feel these feelings and emotions.
There is so much I can talk about when it comes to emotions and that is what I talk about today, I share how emotions get trapped in our body and what happens when we have unprocessed emotions and why they need to be felt in their entirety in order to be released. I talk about escapism and what using numbing and coping mechanisms will do to you in the long term and how dangerous this is for your emotional and mental well-being. I also offer a quick short 5-minute practice you can do to release anger and anxiety or any other emotion you are feeling.
So when we run away from our emotions they actually begin to chase us, or the demons within us grow so big and ugly and we are forever running away from them!! as it's easier to do that than to deal with them, easier to just suppress them, brush them under the carpet and forget about them. Over time this turns into so much anger and sadness and can lead to depression and anxiety when we are recycling instead of releasing emotion.
Don’t let the fear of feeling keep you from healing, just know that with this pain of sitting with your emotions and then having strategies to release them so they don't have a grip on you, you’re setting yourself up for even higher levels of joy, peace, and love than ever before.
The emotion exercise I take you through starts at [36.00] minutes.
