Listen "Pause: Resetting When Navigating Negative Feelings or Hard Situations [Pause 27]"
Episode Synopsis
Pause episodes aim to improve the connection between your mind and body. We practice mindfulness and mental focus, which have been found to improve the blood flow in your left hemisphere of the brain. These episodes are identified by the white raven on the podcast cover art, and each episode addresses a different topic to assist you in practicing being settled and grounded.In this episode, I help you get mentally reset when processing hard situations and negative feelings like anger, disappointment, and sadness by slowing down your mind in order to reconnect to your whole brain. Intense feelings can pull you into fight or flight, which limits your ability to process the situation with your thoughts, empathy, creativity, and feeling seen and connected. Join me for settling your mind and body.
