Ep #257: Unearthing the Buried: Understanding and Healing from a ‘Sweep-It-Under-The-Rug’ Upbringing

#257: Do you find yourself feeling confused or frustrated in situations that demand an emotional response? How did it come to be this way, and what can we do to reconnect with our feelings?    Avoidance of emotions in adulthood tends to overlap with an upbringing in which a "sweep-it-under-the-rug" philosophy was modeled, and this emotional silence leaves a profound and long-lasting imprint on us. Join me this week to learn the biological and psychological implications of growing up in an environment of emotional suppression, and how we can begin the process of emotional repair.    Get full show notes and more information here: https://victoriaalbina.com/257
