74. Pelvic Pain & Emotions: Why Feeling Matters


Listen Later

Welcome back, baby!

In this episode we continue the conversation around stress, the nervous system, and pelvic pain — and explore an important piece that often gets overlooked:

Feeling your emotions.

When we talk about nervous system regulation, it’s easy to think that we should always be trying to calm down, relax, or feel better. But true regulation isn’t about bypassing what’s uncomfortable — it’s about allowing your body to move through it.

In this episode, we talk about:

  • why emotions like anger, grief, sadness, and frustration are part of the healing process
  • how suppressing emotions can keep tension stuck in the body
  • the connection between your emotional experiences and pelvic pain
  • how your relationship with emotions may have been shaped over time
  • and what it means to safely feel what’s coming up

This is a gentle reminder that healing isn’t about avoiding hard feelings — it’s about creating space for them.
