Episode Synopsis

Send us a textWe've all had those mornings where everything seems to spiral out of control and our emotions take over, leaving us feeling hopeless and overwhelmed. In today's episode, we dive deep into the fascinating world of our brain and its response to these emotional storms. We discuss the differences between the lower brain - fast, automated, and constantly on the lookout for danger - and the higher brain, which might be slower, but has strengths the lower brain simply can't match. By learning to slow down and activate our higher brain, we can gain control over our emotions in even the most challenging situations. Moreover, we break down the acronym S.A.F.E. and emphasize the importance of the 'S' - self-awareness and slowing down. By becoming more self-aware and taking a step back from our emotions, we can allow our higher brain to take the wheel and guide us through these overwhelming instances. Learn how to hack your physiological body processes to slow down your emotions and regain control in life. So, sit back, tune in, and discover the power of slowing down in managing your emotions.If you'd like to get the show notes for this episode, head to: https://leighgermann.com
