S2 Ep5: Summer Series 5 - Why Big Feelings are Dangerous to the Nervous System (and How it Protects Us)

Today on the podcast we do another "knowledge drop" focused on a specific topic that you guys have been discussing - How do we get underneath the big feelings that feel dangerous to the Nervous System in order to transform our lives? There are heavy hitting emotions that are deemed by our primitive brains as unsafe, like Rage, Despair, Shame, and Terror. There are two ways we channel those feelings into things that feel "manageable": allowing (without knowing we are doing so) our bodies to carry them as chronic issues, or living in the space of "lighter" emotions like frustration, annoyance, worry, and irritation. Today we discuss it all, and how we might be brave and bold enough to scratch the surface of these lighter states of discomfort, and get to where the healing resides. XOOX join us! -n.
