Trigger warning: This episode discusses depression, self-harm, and suicidal ideation.

This week, Bat and G explore the Rasa of Disgust, Vibhatsa, through the lens of Internal Family Systems and The Yoga of the Nine Emotions. Disgust often masks pain and shame held by exiled parts of us, while protector parts try to keep that pain hidden. But healing begins when we meet these parts with curiosity and compassion—not judgment. You’ll learn practices to work with disgust, unblend from harsh inner voices, and ultimately the fact that you are not alone, or disgusting.

Next week, we turn toward Fear, Bhayanaka—its masks, its roots, and its grip on control.
