The Power Of Heart Healing - with Wendy Sloneker


Listen Later

On this episode Ariel is joined by Wendy Sloneker to talk about heart healing and tool to clear and heal your heart.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Heart healing is something that we aren’t always encouraged or taught to do, but I needed to know how to do it. Have you ever had an experience where you’re trying to figure it out using your brain and you can’t, and it’s driving you nuts. Oftentimes this has to do with emotions. In the case of heart healing, we’re actually using the heart to heal, even if it’s broken. We’re going in with the right tool for the right thing.
  • There are several tools that we just don’t know about because we’re busy over-eating or over-drinking about it, coping in different ways. We think the short term fix of shopping or gambling or sex or binge-watching your favourite TV will handle it long term, when it doesn’t. Short term fixes are great for the short term, but long term they stink.
  • One of the best things is to be in safe, non-judgemental space, I’m not going to bear it all to someone that I don’t really know if I can trust. Having a safe space definitely sets a tone for the environment and having an agreement about how we work. I work with honesty, confidentiality and the understanding that every life event, every loss, every relationship is unique and individual. I also use tools based in cognitive behavioural therapy, but I use them in a coaching approach. Before that, I go through a process of teaching people how to feel a feeling.
  • Most obvious issues are the two big D’s, death and divorce. Also included in divorce are estrangement in relationships, breakups, engagements broken off, long-term and short-term breakups of many kinds. Moving is lesser known, but it still generates a feeling of loss, especially if they’re young, leaving friends and support systems and going somewhere foreign. Moving out or having your kids move out can also be really painful. People think that when great stuff happens like marriage, having kids, getting into recovery, getting out of jail, even though these changes are amazing and transformative can bring about feeling of loss based on change based on fear, your identity changes. This is not the case for everyone, but you need to look at those feelings and allow them.

 

BEST MOMENTS

“The brain is not broken when it comes to grief and loss, it’s the heart that’s broken so we’re going to use the heart to heal.”
“It’s really difficult for the brain, when it gets into a really calcified brain pattern, to stop thinking in a loop.”
“We’re encouraged to ignore grief: Whatever you do, don’t feel!”
“One of the common fears is that this will never end, but that’s untrue, your brain is afraid of feeling and is afraid it’s going to die. It’s the ego and it feels so real.”

ABOUT THE GUEST

Wendy Sloneker helps people suffering from loss to reclaim a sense of aliveness: “I have a vision of helping people learn to confidently, proactively, and freely navigate the hard feelings of loss, pain, isolation, heartbreak, and grief. The stuff that happens naturally in life itself.

When we are able to process the hardest feelings in a healthy, intentional way, we can work, communicate, love, play, and share this life experience with more harmony, greater satisfaction and confidence, and more joy. Can you imagine?”
