In this raw and grounding episode of The Mindful Living with Sana, transformational coach and bestselling author Irina Shehovsov joins us to explore healing emotional wounds that don’t just fade with time. We dive deep into how unresolved pain gets stored in the nervous system, how it affects our daily decisions, health, and joy—and how to release it.
Irina shares her journey of becoming a single mom, discovering inner resilience, and using tools like NLP, breathwork, and singing to heal from the inside out. This conversation is essential for women over 40 navigating heartbreak, identity loss, and the pressure to "move on." We unpack why time doesn’t heal all wounds unless we do the work—and how daily rituals, emotional release, and reclaiming your identity help rebuild from within.
Tune in to hear how to stop carrying yesterday’s pain into today’s life, and why reconnecting with joy is not a luxury—it’s a necessity.
Irina Shehovsov is a transformational coach, founder of Reclaim Your Life, bestselling author of
The Gift Inside, and host of two empowering podcasts. She helps women over 40 heal from heartbreak, rediscover self-worth, and rebuild their lives with joy, intention, and emotional freedom. She also leads the Happiness Academy, focused on holistic well-being and personal growth.
Emotional pain doesn’t disappear on its own. Without regulation and conscious release, it embeds in the body, affecting long-term health and mindset.
The nervous system plays a central role in trauma response. Just like a gazelle escaping a tiger, we need ways to discharge stored stress—but we often don’t, leading to internalized pain.
Forgiveness and gratitude are powerful tools to free ourselves—not for others, but to stop “sipping poison” and expecting healing from outside.
Healing begins with awareness. Replaying past events repeatedly tricks the brain into reliving trauma in the present, reinforcing the same emotional loops.
Practices like breathwork, movement, singing, NLP, and timeline therapy offer tangible ways to release emotions and rewire subconscious patterns.
Reclaiming identity—especially after long-term relationships or caregiving roles—is essential. You are more than a role; you are whole, and already enough.
Morning routines, gratitude, and small joys (like a 10-minute daily creative hobby) can create profound shifts in self-worth and emotional stability.
