How to Feel Your Feelings (Before They Explode)

<p>My shoulders were up around my ears for I don&#39;t even know how long before I noticed. My neck was so stiff I could barely move. I&#39;d been stuffing down my feelings about a challenging family issue and telling myself it was fine. And then it wasn&#39;t fine. It was an explosion.</p><p>If you&#39;ve ever gone numb without knowing why, snapped over something small, or wondered why you&#39;re so emotional lately, this episode is for you. So many empty nest women learn to push feelings aside because someone always needed something from us. But a stuffed feeling doesn&#39;t disappear, it&#39;s like holding a beach ball underwater. You can do it for a while, but the second you let go, it shoots right back up, usually with more force than if you&#39;d just let it float in the first place.</p><p>In this episode, I&#39;m walking you through the exact body scan I use with every client to process a feeling in 90 seconds, plus the real story of the hourly alarm I set the year my mom passed away, one that helped me feel grief and gratitude at the same time instead of being swept under by either one. Then I walk you through it live, right in the episode, on a feeling of your own, so you finish this episode having actually done the work, not just heard about it.</p><p>If you&#39;re navigating the empty nest transition, trying to process your emotions in midlife, or just quietly asking who you are now, this episode gives you a real tool you can use today, in 90 seconds flat.</p><p>This is your season to feel it and move forward.
