The Power of the Mind-Body Connection
For some, this means shutting off our emotions entirely in order to cope with childhood trauma. On the other hand, there are those who are hyper-aware of every emotional shift they experience, leading to an increased risk of health problems. The key is to find a healthy balance and take care of ourselves emotionally.
Her struggle didn’t stop there, though. She also had an autoimmune condition that would amplify if she ever became emotionally stressed. She had to endure the physical and emotional pain for years, but a breakthrough finally came.
While working with her, I helped to discover and release her trapped emotions. As a result her chronic back pain subsided from an 8/10 to a more manageable 5/10. This is a true testament to the power of the mind-body connection and the strength of the human spirit!
The physical pain this person was experiencing due to abuse was truly overwhelming. But once she was able to release those emotions, she found relief from the physical suffering. The nerves in her body were under immense stress from the unresolved trauma, which was causing her immense discomfort. Facing those deep-rooted feelings head-on took away the power they had over her, and in turn, eased her physical agony.
Taking Control of Your Health Through Emotional Awareness
While it may have been helpful back then, it’s important to recognize that this same numbness may be hindering your ability to fully experience the joys of your current life. It’s time to break free from the numbness and start feeling alive again.
Take control of your health by being mindful of your emotions. It’s not about “too much” or “too little” emotion, but rather, understanding how different emotions impact your daily life. Ignoring your emotions or becoming consumed by them can leave you feeling drained and unprepared to deal with situations.
By taking stock of your emotions and their impact on you, you are laying the groundwork to better manage and navigate your emotional landscape. Remember, awareness is the first step towards a healthier emotional life.
