EP.155 - It's Not Always Depression with Hilary Jacobs Hendel 
Listen to the Body, Discover Core Emotions and Connect To Your Authentic Self 
Hilary Jacobs Hendel is a Certified Psychotherapist and the author of It's Not Always Depression.
Her goal is to educate people on the benefits of understanding what emotions really are and how they affect our mind, brain and body.
We live in a culture that values thoughts and logic over emotions. But science has proven it is not healthy to tune out our emotions and we do not have to choose between our thoughts and our emotions.
We can become aware of both and understand how thoughts and emotions work together to help us feel better or feel worse depending on how we work with them.
Emotions are very unique in their potential to cause traumatic stress and everyday distress.
But what most people do not know, because we were never taught this in school, is that emotions are the doorway to healing our anxieties, depression, low self-esteem, and other mental health symptoms.
Working with our emotions in very specific ways, which is what the Change Triangle tool for emotional health is all about, as it help us to manage daily life with more ease and helps us meet the challenges of our relationships.
We were all taught that our thoughts affect our emotions, but in truth it is largely the other way around: we have to experience our emotions to truly understand our thoughts, and our full selves.
This is why we should think not only about cognitive behavioural therapy or medication, but also about our emotions, when addressing psychological suffering.
In It's Not Always Depression, pioneering psychotherapist Hilary Jacobs Hendel reveals the most effective techniques for putting us back in touch with the emotions we too often deny methods which can be used by anyone, any time, any where.
Drawing on stories for her own practice, she sheds light on the core emotions (such as joy, sadness and fear), defences (anything we do to avoid feeling) and inhibitory emotions (anxiety, shame and guilt), and how understanding their interaction can help us return to mental well-being and be more calm, curious and connected.
