Emotional Pain Cannot Kill You, But Running From It Can | Petra Brzovic & Guy Lawrence

#231 Adverse experiences and trauma in childhood live with us, resulting in whole body dysfunction, activating harmful stress responses that keep us stuck engaging in patterns of codependency, emotional immaturity, and trauma bonds. Unless addressed, these self-sabotaging behaviors can quickly become cyclical, leaving people feeling unhappy, unfulfilled, and unwell. The same applies to the painful experiences we go through in life. Vironika Tugaleva said, "Emotional pain cannot kill you, but running from it can. Allow. Embrace. Let yourself feel. Let yourself heal". In this episode, I'll have a very candid conversation about that with the incredible Petra Brzović, an intuitive therapist with a strong background in many disciplines in which she is certified. Petra conducts workshops and seminars all over the world, as a result of her long-standing experience in working as a therapist and a yoga teacher. They are a fusion of various healing techniques making them unique, intuitive and liberating. As master trainer and instructor, Petra is training and teaching therapists around the world, helping them learn how to help others heal. She also actively participates at Body & Mind conferences, seminars and trainings, follows the latest research in the field of medicine of the mind and body, and passionately researches the consciousness, correlation between brain, body and soul with an international team of scientists and doctors.  Petra and I will apply the observations we've made at our Live in Flow retreats to discuss the problem most people have in doing the work necessary to achieve healing. Healing can only come from looking at our challenges and pain in a new way. When we allow ourselves to fully experience painful or uncomfortable feelings, we are doing work. Sitting with our feelings instead of disengaging or distracting ourselves is work. When we understand the true nature of our work, we can summon compassion for ourselves as we move through our uncomfortable feelings on the path to healing, peace, and wholeness. Join us as we dive deeper into that and I promise you that it will change your life forever. Enjoy!
