The Healing Power of Emptiness

In this episode, we talk about how understanding the emptiness and interdependent nature of our emotions and felt experience of energy can help us heal from shame, anxiety, rage, and more. I’ll talk about why we all struggle to see our energy as neither good nor bad, and the importance of finding community and support when we’re unable to see the potential for change in our own situation. We also dive into some practices to help us protect ourselves and also cleanse from heavier energy when it’s harder for us to see the emptiness of a situation, and how we can more effectively hold space for one another.

In this episode, you will learn:

// Why energy is neither inherently good or bad - and why we can still use protection and cleansing practices

// How we can learn to view our own felt experience with emptiness and potential

// How we can help others see their energy in this way, while protecting ourselves

// Why we can’t do this work alone
