1734: The Hidden Benefits of Crying—And Why We Hold Back


Listen Later

Welcome to Calmer in 5, where we make serenity simple—one thought at a time. Today, we're talking about something that many of us have a complicated relationship with—crying. Whether it's seen as a sign of weakness, vulnerability, or even something to be ashamed of, society has a way of shaping how we feel about shedding tears. But what if we reframe it? What if crying isn't something to suppress but rather a natural, healthy way to release emotion and find clarity? In this episode, we'll explore what it truly means to cry, why it can make us uncomfortable, and how embracing it can actually bring us closer to peace. Let's take a closer look at the power of tears.

Topics Covered:

✅ How society impacts our calm ✅ The importance of revisiting your values ✅ What does crying mean.
