How Highly Sensitive Women Can Manage Big Emotions (with body awareness)

Hi, Jenn, and welcome to The Awaken Your wise woman podcast. Thank you for having me. So nice to have you on board here, for the listeners who don't know who you are, could you share a little bit about yourself and the work that you do?“What I would say to deep, profound feelers, is that we are capable of doing hard and impossible things, and we are capable of sitting with hard and impossible feelings.”  — Jenn RapkinEmotions are called feelings for a reason. Frequent deep or strong emotions can seem overwhelming. When they do, our first reaction is often to turn to our mind, to try to think our way out of those uncomfortable feelings. In doing so, we may be overlooking a powerful tool that can help us ride the waves of strong emotions: our bodies. In this episode of Awaken Your Wise Woman, host Elizabeth “Biz” Cush, LCPC, a licensed professional therapist, founder of Progression Counseling in Maryland and Delaware, and soul support for highly sensitive women, welcomes Dr. Jenn Rapkin, ND, author of The Feeling Muscle, for a discussion of frequent feelers, high sensitivity, big emotions and our bodies. They talk about how body work can complement the other work we are doing and what physical practices and sensations can teach us. You can find the full show notes and resources for every episode here.Support the showI hope you enjoyed the show!You can also follow me here:InstagramYouTubeFacebook
