    Are These Feelings Even Yours?

    Are These Feelings Even Yours? Do you ever feel anxious, heavy, or emotionally drained without knowing why—especially after being around certain people or environments? In this episode of The Embodied Empath Podcast, Valerie Lundgren explores emotional absorption through the lens of the nervous system and explains why empaths and highly sensitive women often carry emotions that don’t belong to them. You’ll learn how the body’s subconscious threat-detection system responds to emotional tension, why women are conditioned to over-attune to others, and how chronic emotional absorption fuels anxiety and burnout. This episode introduces a somatic practice to help you differentiate your emotions from others, restore energetic boundaries, and return to a sense of calm and clarity—without shutting down your empathy. If you’ve ever wondered whether your anxiety is actually yours, this conversation will help you listen to your body with compassion and confidence.

    Perimenopause, Panic, Rage & the Nervous System

    If you’ve felt more anxious, reactive, or emotionally raw during perimenopause—and wondered if something is “wrong” with you—this episode offers the context you were never given. In this episode of The Embodied Empath Podcast, Valerie Lundgren explains how hormonal shifts during perimenopause directly impact the nervous system, lowering emotional thresholds and intensifying panic, rage, and sensory overwhelm—especially for empaths and highly sensitive women. You’ll learn why these changes aren’t a loss of control but a biological and neurological recalibration, how emotional labor and identity shifts compound nervous system stress, and why rage is often a boundary signal—not a flaw. The episode includes a gentle somatic practice to safely release anger and regulate your system in real time. This conversation is about understanding your body, not fixing yourself—and learning how to move through this transition with clarity and self-trust.

    Why Your Anxiety Isn’t a Mindset Problem

    Anxiety isn’t caused by negative thinking or lack of willpower—it’s a nervous system response designed to keep you safe. In this episode of The Embodied Empath Podcast, Valerie Lundgren breaks down the science behind anxiety and explains why mindset tools alone often fail to create lasting relief—especially for empaths and sensitive women. You’ll learn how the nervous system detects threat before conscious thought, why chronic stress keeps the body stuck in survival mode, and how regulation—not positive thinking—is the key to real healing. If you’ve ever felt frustrated that you “know better” but still feel anxious, this episode will help you understand your body with compassion and clarity.
