Fertile Ground: A mind-body approach to getting pregnant - without it taking over your life.5 Mars 2024

Episode 131 - Your pain wants to heal you. Here's how to let it.

Vulnerability share: I had a really hard few days last week. For the first time in what felt like forever, I had a lot bubble up inside of my body. At first, I resisted. I pouted. I complained. (Like any other human does at the feeling of deep feels.) But then… eventually… I surrendered.

It got me thinking…

My God… us human beings have this massive capability of feeling emotions inside of our bodies. To help guide us and process our life experiences. To literally help us become healthier. Admittedly, it's very hard to feel it. It's uncomfortable to be present with your sadness, your grief, your anger. It takes self-worth to create enough space in your life, to process, cry and witness what wants to come up.

On top of this really hard part of being a human, we are taught to believe that these aspects of ourselves are wrong. Bad. Maybe we even believe they rise up because we aren't "good enough" at managing things. And it's so not true.

I realized in my experience that pain is so healthy. Pain is so natural. Pain is healing in motion. It helped me to discover so much about myself, about my life, about what my body needed, about what I can change for the better. Although it did not feel like it at the time, it was a total gift from God.

We all feel these intense emotions. They are nothing to be ashamed of. It's the price of being a human being.

So why not just feel them?

I released a new podcast today: Your pain wants to heal you. Here's how to let it.

It's to show you how to create enough safety within your mind and body to say yes, the next time your body is ready to feel the more difficult emotions.

You're not alone in having them. There's nothing wrong with you for having them. You are safe to feel them. Listen now.
