12. Remembering Series pt 5 - Emotional Processing with RAIN + Reinforcing Your Self Worth

In this episode I explain the steps of RAIN (Recognize, Allow, Investigate, Nurture) for emotional processing and how sometimes you can think you're allowing a feeling, but you're really only fake allowing it in hopes that it will go away ASAP. I used to do this all the time. I'd be like "oh yeah, it's totally ok that I'm feeling this" when meanwhile everything in my energy was saying a big fat "no" to it and I'd resist dropping down into my body to actually feel it.

I also go into why lovingly leading yourself through your emotional experiences reinforces the belief that you are unconditionally loved and live in a generous, loving universe. Before I knew how to give myself love and compassion in the face of feeling triggered, I just couldn't trust that I was safe. I wanted to believe I live in a generous universe, but I couldn't really connect to that. Because I didn't even feel loved by my own damn self. I felt judged and shamed every time I experienced difficult feelings. So I continually perceived that I was being personally attacked and punished by the universe as well.

Now that I consistently show up for myself with compassion no matter what's coming up internally, I find myself more and more able to get behind the belief that I'm inherently worthy and deserving, AND unconditionally loved by something bigger than me.
