Emotional Repression, Processing, and Healing

As we unpack the impact of childhood neglect and discuss the ways emotional dysregulation can stem from early experiences, this episode sheds light on the importance of building a relationship with our emotions. The journey of emotional healing starts right where you are, and even the smallest steps—like becoming curious about your emotional responses—can lead to profound change. In today’s episode, our hosts Elisabeth and Jennifer explore the intricate connection between physical health and emotional repression. The conversation centers on understanding the emotional layers that contribute to physical and behavioral responses, offering insight into how we can expand our capacity for emotional regulation and processing. This journey is unique for everyone, and simply beginning to explore your emotions and behaviors with curiosity can be a powerful first step. You will also hear how to make small, actionable steps to support your system in processing emotions, developing stress resilience, and creating a foundation for long-term emotional health.
