On today’s solo episode Sabrina delves into the often-overlooked concept of sitting with uncomfortable emotions. She shares personal stories to make the topic relatable, emphasizing that emotional discomfort is not something to resist but to explore. By understanding what’s happening in your body and identifying where the discomfort lies, you can regulate your emotions more effectively. Sabrina explains that managing emotions isn’t about eliminating discomfort but using tools like mindfulness, breathwork, and self-compassion to engage your prefrontal cortex and create space for clarity. It's crucial to identify where you've learned to suppress feelings, as unresolved emotions can hinder growth. Sabrina advises acknowledging sensations, naming emotions, and reparenting yourself to build resilience and avoid spiraling. By practicing cognitive reappraisal, mindfulness, and gradual exposure, you can reframe challenges and make room for growth. She also highlights the importance of emotional validation, respecting others’ feelings, and setting boundaries in relationships. Ultimately, building emotional resilience requires self-compassion, allowing yourself to feel and process discomfort, and understanding that emotional regulation is a gradual, ongoing journey.
