The Third Path | Containment and Emotional Metabolism


Listen Later

Most people are taught only two ways to deal with emotions:
express them immediately or suppress them entirely. Both approaches fail the nervous system.

In this episode, we explore a third option: emotional containment — the skill of allowing feelings to be processed without being acted out or pushed away. You’ll learn:
  • why venting often increases reactivity instead of resolution
  • how suppression creates long-term tension in the body
  • what it means to “metabolize” emotion rather than discharge it
  • how pausing, naming, and regulating feelings restores agency
This is not emotional control.
It’s emotional digestion — turning raw experience into clarity instead of regret.
