Every Body Holds A Story Podcast


Oct 6, 2021

In this episode, Sue and Marsha talk about the energy of this time and how it can stem to be part of the experience of grief.  As we are in a state of feeling loss of control, this feeling of being out of control can bring the worst out in us because as humans we like to know that we have control. Emotions are high, people are experiencing fear, anger,  and collectively we are all going through change knowing that are continuously creating a new norm. The world is calling for more empathy, compassion, kindness, and sharing our light with others.

In this episode we discuss:

1) A friend shared this quote, “we are all in the same storm right now, but we are all in different boats. Some of us are in rubber dingy’s and some of us are in yachts.”  This is a reminder to respect and honour our boat and do what we need to do on a daily basis to keep our boat afloat.  This might even mean having time to stop paddling and rest.

2) “It is easier to be angry than it is to be afraid.” ~ Mel Robbins.  To sit with our fear is more uncomfortable. Don’t avoid it, push it away or resist it.  Get curious, ask more questions and ask if you choosing anger because it is hurting you, it is hurting others, and it is still not a solution to a problem. 

3) Whatever we are holding onto, the emotions, the fear is not just a simple emotion.  It is seeping into our body, our cells, and only creating further anxiety.  Trying something new to release the energy, such as dancing, singing, crying, card pulling, or whatever you need to do all day long to shift the energy.

4) If you are feeling as though you are struggling with your own personal boundaries and can feel your energy being affected by social media, media, or the news in general, step away and listen to what your body needs. Empathy for other humans starts with building compassion within ourselves first.
