Stress Management + Resilience Tools for Your Happified Life

Reclaim Control! Free Your Emotions + Release Stress


Listen Later

Host Susi Vine returns with an episode delving into the emotional roots of stress, and how emotional awareness can not only reduce daily friction but even lighten your load of chronic stress. Once you understand that there are no “bad” emotions—only uncomfortable ones—and that habits like overworking, scrolling, and judging are really defensive patterns of numbing or avoiding feelings, then you see how core emotions (sadness, joy, anger, fear) are signals about your emotional and physical needs, and what you need in order to feel safe. You truly lighten your load by allowing those emotions to be felt rather than blocked and unprocessed. 

Discover the important signals that your emotions are really trying to send you, and how to give room to those feelings and free yourself. Susi illuminates the connection between unprocessed emotions, chronic stress and inflammation, and offers a practical “check-in” exercise, along with tools to expand your emotional vocabulary.
