from Somatic Healing for Wellness-Focused Women · host Rae The Somatic Coach
Do your emotions ever feel like the absolute truth? In this episode, we're breaking down one of the most common (and sneaky) mental traps: emotional reasoning—the idea that “if I feel it, it must be real.”💭 “I feel anxious, so something must be wrong.” 💭 “I feel guilty, so I must’ve done something bad.” 💭 “I feel overwhelmed, so I probably can’t handle this.”Sound familiar? You're not alone. This pattern can spiral fast and it’s deeply tied to nervous system dysregulation and unprocessed emotional experiences.In today’s episode, I’m sharing:🌿 Why your brain & body often confuse past fear with present danger🌿 How to identify when you’re being the emotion vs feeling it 🌿 5 somatic practices to bring regulation, clarity, and grounded safety back into your body 🌿 How to stop letting feelings override your self-trust and intuition 🌿 What it really means to relate to your emotions instead of resist themWhether you identify as a big feeler, a highly sensitive soul, or just someone who’s been riding an anxious wave lately, this episode is for you. Tune in for honest reflections, somatic tools, and mindset shifts that help you reclaim your power without bypassing your emotions.🧘♀️ Grab your free somatic resource library (Breathe Easy) inside the Somatic Healing Newsletter !💌 Want to share what came up for you?
