We all experience fear on some level - fear of the unknown, fear of money, fear of failure, the list goes on.  Fear is also often found underlying higher-level emotions expressed in the moment such as anxiety, anger, or jealousy. In Session 1, mindfulness teacher and emotional intelligence expert, Michelle Maldonado talked about the importance of understanding how you are feeling and where it manifests physiologically. In this episode, Michelle dives into the body and brain connection of emotions - specifically fear. She shares effective tools such as R.A.I.N., journaling, and four agreements in order to break the fear cycle and increase your cognitive resilience.

Michelle Maldonado is the Founder and CEO of Lucenscia (www.lucenscia.com)

Many of us are feeling frustrated, anxious, and uncertain about the future.  In April 2020, Risa and mindfulness teacher and emotional intelligence expert, Michelle Maldonado, created a 6 part workshop to help people understand their feelings and tools to manage their anxiety and emotions.  This workshop was hosted on YouTube Live.  As times continue to be uncertain with the pandemic, the information and tools that Michelle shares continue to be highly relevant so we thought to share these lessons with you as we kick off 2022. 

This week's session focuses on It's Okay Not To Be Okay.  We discuss how to understand how your body processes stress physically and emotionally, and helpful breathing practices to incorporate into your daily routine to reduce stress and anxiety.
