Anxiety Is Actually Non-Feeling
from Unprocessed · host Lia Avellino
I share about a time when anxiety was actually distracting from my grief. Therapist Sheryl Paul taught me "the noise in our brain distracts from the pain in our hearts." While anxiety is a very sentient experience, it actually works to conceal the bigger, juicier, often heavier emotions underneath. In this episode I share my perspective on developing long-term, unrushed, relationships with my wounds. Letting them know, we've got time. And instead of trying to rush their healing, just being honest with others about them being unhealed.
