In this episode, I delve into the importance of tuning into our emotions and connecting with our hearts. I share my personal journey of realizing how disconnected I was from my feelings and how this disconnection manifested as anxiety and physical symptoms like heartburn. I discuss my recent commitment to a 30-day challenge inspired by HeartMath research, where I spend 30 minutes each day focusing on my emotional landscape.
Throughout the episode, I reflect on my childhood experiences that led me to intellectualize rather than feel my emotions. I talk about the various coping mechanisms I developed, such as overachieving and avoiding conflict, and how these have shaped my adult life. By intentionally connecting with my heart and emotions, I've started to uncover deep-seated habits and childhood wounds.
I encourage listeners to join me in this 30-day challenge, suggesting practical steps like reading a list of emotions daily and paying attention to bodily sensations. I emphasize that connecting with our hearts is a muscle that needs to be developed and that doing so can lead to profound changes in our stress levels, relationships, and overall well-being.
I invite listeners to reach out and share their experiences as we support each other in this journey of emotional exploration and heart connection.
