“Name it to tame it” isn't just a phrase; it's neuroscience. Research shows that when we put our feelings into words, we activate the part of the brain that helps us feel calmer, clearer, and more in control. In this episode of Somatic Healing Meditations, I guide you through a gentle, somatic exercise to help you name what you're feeling in a way that brings emotional clarity and relief. And we won't just be using words—we'll also be using Self-Havening, a simple but powerful technique that uses soothing touch to support your nervous system and deepen your healing. By combining mindful awareness with gentle touch, we create the perfect conditions for emotional release, self-regulation, and deep self-compassion. If you've been feeling tangled up in emotions or just want a compassionate way to reconnect with yourself, this episode is for you. Let this Name It To Tame It practice be a gift to yourself—a moment to name what's here, to soften into it, and to discover what happens when you meet yourself with curiosity and care.

Have you ever found yourself being told to "just calm down" or that "everything happens for a reason" when you were going through a tough situation? If so, you have experienced toxic positivity. In this episode, Rebecca shares what toxic positivity truly means, how to identify it, and a practice that will help you honor your emotions. It's important to note that toxic positivity is not entirely negative. Having a positive mindset can be beneficial, but it becomes toxic when it dismisses your genuine emotions. It is crucial to recognize that it is okay to feel your feelings and navigate through difficult times. As humans, we are wired for connection, so it is crucial to be there for both others and ourselves. Expressing and experiencing our emotions is healthier than suppressing them. Remember, your feelings deserve to be respected and validated. This episode can be found at rebeccawiener.com/podcast , Spotify, Apple Podcast and most other streaming apps.

A psychotherapist and hit podcaster brings empathy and humor to her first book, a radical reimagining of the self-help genre that teaches listeners how to “process their emotional sh*t,” let it go, and enjoy the life they're livingAfter suffering through her own cycle of tragedy, suppressed emotion, professional study, therapy, and eventual breakthrough, Rachel Kaplan knows from experience that many of us avoid actually feeling our feelings. Instead, we store them in a kind of emotional constipation, chasing distraction, addiction, consumption, and other forms of suppression. The only way to heal from traumatic experiences and difficult feelings, to live healthier and happier lives, is to move the emotions through our bodies—to let that sh*t go.Heal, Feel, and Let That Sh*t Go is a revolutionary and irreverent approach to personal transformation and self-care that teaches listeners precisely how to (and why they should) feel emotions to move them through the body as nature intended. Kaplan calls this modality “emotional potty training,” and the revolutionary community she's nurturing, the Feelings Movement. Her approach helps listeners heal themselves deep down, eliminate doubt about their own self-worth and value, and importantly, enjoy the journey.To accomplish this, Kaplan guides listeners to:reconnect and reintegrate with their younger selves who suppressed emotion because they needed connection and approval from parents in order to surviveaccess the inner pain resulting from the experience of feeling unlovable and other traumas that were not emotionally processed at the timeengage in self-care practices and step-by-step physical and mental exercises to work through and release these pent-up feelingsRestoring the ability to process emotion is the only effective means for reducing our backlog of emotional pain, establishing a baseline of well-being and self-trust, and overcoming the debilitating effects of core wounds, chronic stress, depression, and misery. By letting that sh*t go, listeners can enjoy the life they're living and know their worth, no matter what.Rachel Kaplan, MA, MFT, is a licensed psychotherapist, mental-health educator, and author of “Feel Your Feelings: the Healing Power of Letting That Sh*t Go,” forthcoming from New World Library in late October 2024. Creator and host of award-winning podcast, The Healing Feeling Sh*t Show, she has developed a vibrant community, The Feelings Movement, on multiple social-media channels (IG, Tiktok, Threads) with more than 150,000 active followers. She's been featured as a guest on dozens of podcasts, and her essays have appeared in the popular San Francisco Bay Area wellness magazine, Common Ground. She holds a master's degree in counseling psychology from the California Institute of Integral Studies and has trained in cutting-edge trauma treatment models such as EMDR. She studied yoga, meditation, and hands-on healing practices in India and Nepal, and worked for years with an Apache-initiated master healer. She runs a thriving therapy practice in the Bay Area and personal-transformation workshops in Joshua Tree.https://thefeelingsmovement.com/mediaBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/earth-ancients--2790919/support.
