Ep48 | How Our Brains Help Us Cope with Big Feelings

We all cope with fear, confusion and big feelings in a handful of ways that are common to us all. Taking stock of the tools you use — what’s helpful and what isn’t — is an important step in embracing your present reality and growing your capacity for connection in your life and relationships. In today's episode we continue making our way through the list of psychological defenses against emotion as presented in Dr. Raja Selvam's book The Practice of Embodying Emotion. ************************************************************************ Every episode comes with prompts for journaling and reflection.
