Soul + Practice: Raw Conversations & Real Practices with Kathy Escobar & Phyllis Mathis episodes

October 24, 2022 Episode 35: To Feel or Not to Feel
In this episode we dive into the Feeling quadrant in this 5 part series processing the Four Gateways, a framework for greater emotional and relational health that we're riffing on as we start this season. Some of us over-feel, over-love, over-empathize, and some of us are shut down, taught to suppress certain kinds of feelings to protect ourselves. There's no perfect balance but considering where we can practice and grow helps.

So many of us are masters at overthinking everything. This is part of the 4 Gateways series--Thinking, Feeling, Doing, and Being--and this episode is centered on the "Magician" or thinking quadrant and ways it can over-function, under-function, or with some practice and intention, become healthier.

The 4 Gateways are a tool to help us consider these aspects of ourselves and this episode is just an overview and a launching place for future conversations.
