Sitting with Pain
Manage episode 388302040 series 3535241
Can you imagine holding onto a pebble of pain, rubbing it smooth over years, like a worry stone? In today's episode, we dive deep into the uncharted territory of emotional pain—how we deal with it, why we hold onto it, and how we might begin to let it go.
I share some personal experiences around this topic, from the lingering pain of unresolved family issues to my spouse's past, and how it all intersects with my own hypervigilance and perpetual anxiety. I reflect on the value of having friends who are older and how observing their handling of life's ups and downs informs my perspective.
There's an exploration of the irony of seeking physical pain in kink while shying away from emotional pain, and a deep dive into the theme of self-sabotage—our baffling tendency to undermine our own success.
In a world that often discourages expressing negative emotions, learning to listen to our pain can be a radical act of self-love and healing. So join me as we journey into the heart of pain, and, perhaps, come out stronger on the other side.
