Can buried emotions make us sick? In this episode of Renegade Remission, we explore the groundbreaking science and real-life stories showing how suppressed anger, fear, grief, and trauma can set the stage for disease. You'll learn through Anita Moorjani's incredible story of remission from end-stage lymphoma how emotional repression affects the immune system, why it may contribute to conditions like cancer, ALS, MS, Parkinson's, lupus, and Alzheimer's, and—most importantly—how releasing those hidden emotions has led to profound remissions. If you've ever felt like you had to “stay strong” or “keep it all inside,” this episode will show you why letting go may be one of the most powerful healing tools you have.Disclaimer: This podcast is for educational purposes only and does not offer medical advice.

Letting go of a long-term relationship can feel like losing a lifetime investment, leaving you with grief, resentment, and confusion about how to move forward. Divorce often stirs old wounds and unconscious beliefs formed in childhood, patterns that resurface in marriage and make the ending feel even more painful. Many people believe it will take years of hard work to heal, but what if there was a way to shift your emotional state and release that pain far more quickly? In this episode of the Journey Beyond Divorce Podcast, I sit down with Sanaiyah Gurnamal, a Master ThetaHealer and founder of House of Healing in Dubai. Sanaiyah shares how ThetaHealing works at the subconscious level to dissolve limiting beliefs, heal attachment wounds, and release grief stored in both the body and mind. Together, we explore why cognitive understanding alone isn't enough, how energetic transformation can unlock freedom, and why letting go of the “investment mindset” is essential to moving beyond the past. I also share my personal experience with ThetaHealing and the profound shifts I experienced in a single session. This conversation is both practical and deeply hopeful, offering insight into how you can begin letting go of resentment, shame, and guilt—even if forgiveness feels out of reach. Whether you're in the midst of divorce or still holding on to the pain of a past relationship, this episode will help you see what's possible when you release old stories and open the door to clarity, confidence, and peace.

When it comes to emotions, we do things like ignore, suppress, deny, blunt, reject, fix, turn against, try to control, minimize, distract ourselves from, disguise, dissociate from, numb out and violently act out emotions. For so many reasons, it is critical to re-connect with your emotions and start to feel them again. In this video, Teal is going to give you an exercise to do plus a few more tips, which will help you to do exactly this.

Teenage boys are experiencing increasing rates of loneliness and suicidal thoughts -- which is having a direct impact on their achievement in school. How can schools address that? The final part in On Point's special series “Falling Behind: The Miseducation of America's Boys.”
Toxic stress isn't just having too much to do—it's getting stuck in the Freeze Response, and this can fuel depression. When overwhelmed by stress, trauma, or global problems, our brain may default to the freeze response—shutting down, avoiding, or numbing out. While this can feel comforting short-term, over time it dysregulates the nervous system, increases cortisol, and fuels anxiety and depression. Stress is meant to mobilize us to act; suppressing that drive makes it toxic. Small, purposeful actions restore flow—re-engaging the prefrontal cortex, calming the limbic system, and activating the ventral vagus nerve. This is where service for mental health shines: helping others boosts dopamine, oxytocin, and resilience, breaking the freeze cycle. Acts of kindness, whether raking a neighbor's yard, volunteering, or donating, create the “helper's high” and increase well-being. Service brings purpose, which turns discomfort into joy. Even brief, local, face-to-face kindness reduces loneliness and strengthens connection. You don't have to solve everything—consistent small actions aligned with your values can transform toxic stress into healthy engagement, proving that even little ripples can change the world.

In this episode of the Experience Miracles podcast, Dr. Tony Ebel addresses one of the most challenging issues parents face: constant tantrums, meltdowns, and behavioral issues in children. Rather than focusing on external behavioral modifications, Dr. Tony explains how these challenging behaviors often stem from an imbalanced nervous system. He shares the inspiring story of Jake, a young boy who went from explosive anger and self-harm to becoming a national karate champion through neurologically focused chiropractic care. Dr. Tony breaks down the science behind nervous system dysregulation, explains why traditional approaches often fall short, and offers hope for families struggling with these daily challenges through a drug-free, root-cause approach.----Links & ResourcesFree Article: How to Overcome Constant Meltdowns, Tantrums, and Behavioral OutburstsJakes Story of Hope-----Key Topics & Timestamps([00:03:00]) - Jake's Transformation Story: From explosive tantrums and self-harm to national karate champion through nervous system care([00:06:00]) - Why Traditional Approaches Fall Short: The "climbing Mount Everest with a broken leg" analogy and why behavioral modification alone isn't enough([00:08:00]) - The Inside-Out Approach: How neurologically focused chiropractic addresses the internal nervous system rather than external environment([00:09:00]) - All Gas, No Brakes: Understanding subluxation and why some kids are constantly revved up at 5,000 RPMs([00:11:00]) - Breaking the Cycle of Fear: How constant behavioral challenges isolate families and the hope found in addressing root causes-- Follow us on Socials: Instagram: @pxdocs Facebook: Dr. Tony Ebel & The PX Docs Network Youtube: The PX Docs For more information, visit PXDocs.com to read informative articles about the power of Neurologically-Focused Chiropractic Care.

In this episode, Guy Lawrence interviews Greg Doyle, an expert in astral travel and energy healing. Greg shares his insights on the nature of astral experiences, comparing them to our 3D reality and emphasizing the importance of recognizing our perfect essence. The conversation covers how the mainstream mirrors a conditioned reality and discusses Greg's journey from a classical musician to an astral traveler and energy healer. They delve into common reactions to his work, the intricacies of astral workshops, and the impact of these experiences on personal growth and understanding of death. Greg also touches on the humorous and guiding aspects of astral experiences, his thoughts on the karmic machinery of human life, and the potential for anyone to access astral travel through meditation and relaxation techniques. Finally, they discuss Greg's plans for the future and his advice on living an authentic life. This episode is a thought-provoking exploration of spirituality, consciousness, and the human experience. About Greg: Greg Doyle Greg Doyle is an Astral traveler, energy healer, author, and speaker. His interest and expertise in the mind/body/spirit connection, particularly in the areas of energy healing, meditation and the Out-of-Body-Experience (or astral travel/projection), has seen him help many people around the world move forward through their pain and obstacles and connect more fully with their joy and potential. As a trained classical musician, Greg discovered the benefits of meditation in his early twenties to help combat the stress of stage fright, recognizing the greater aspect of self in the process. In his late thirties, he began to leave his physical body spontaneously, and so began a guided process of consciousness expansion that would not only divert his career, but would also alter his very perception of being. Greg also teaches Reiki and meditation and has recently begun helping people awaken the dormant sense of astral projection that lies within them, using the energetic tools that he has developed over the past decade. He believes that astral awareness is a particularly valuable tool for spiritual expansion, as it is by its very nature fully experiential.

For us, it's do we have a third? We unpack the tug-of-war between the dream of another baby and the reality of bandwidth, identity, and resources. Then we shift to preschool prep — the bittersweet emotions of letting go, watching your child step into a whole new world, and what it stirs up in us as moms.And because real life never hits pause, Annabel shares an update on her daughter's crib escape saga — the impossible math of safety vs. independence, boundaries vs. guilt.It's raw, funny, and heart-hitting — a look at the messy in-betweens of motherhood we don't always say out loud, but we all feel.Instagram: @wearemorethanmomsPatreon: More Than Moms Guides & Resources Join our IRL LA communitySubscribe to our NewsletterProduced by Peoples Media Hosted on Acast.

Insights from this episode:Emotional inclusion is distinct from emotional intelligence: it's about integration and practice, not just awareness.The average person spends 81,396 hours working throughout their lifetime — making sleep, the one thing we do more than work. Workplaces must make those hours meaningful and human.Neuroscience shows that we emote before we even reason; emotions are biological facts, not weaknesses.Burnout and disconnection are at alarming levels:80% of people will experience a diagnosable mental health condition.60% of employees report being emotionally detached; 19% are outright miserable.48% of workers and 53% of managers report being burned out.Five key actions to engineer emotional inclusion:Prioritize mental health support.Build action-oriented platforms for wellness.Educate teams on naming and regulating emotions.Leaders go first in modeling vulnerability.Challenge false assumptions and create psychological safety.Investing in emotional inclusion leads to stronger performance, innovation, retention, and trust.Personal wellbeing habits such as sleep, movement, meditation, and micro-moments of pause fuel sustainable performance.Quotes from the show:“Emotional intelligence is the knowing. Emotional inclusion is the doing.” “81,396 — that's how many hours the average person spends working. Shouldn't those hours be positive, meaningful, and human?” “Emotions are not soft. They're biological facts.” “There is no such thing as splitting our home self from our work self — that's a false dichotomy.” “When leaders open up, they give others permission to do the same.” “If you're not making a difference in people's lives, you shouldn't be in business.” – Richard Branson“Workplaces with greater psychological safety and emotional inclusion will make it possible for everyone to contribute and thrive.” – Amy Edmondson “Let's not just build bridges and technologies. Let's build cultures of compassion, resilience, and humanity.”STAY CONNECTED—*Emotional inclusion:https://www.emotionalinclusion.com/https://www.instagram.com/emotional_inclusion/https://www.linkedin.com/company/emotional-inclusion/*Get your copy of Emotional Inclusion: A Humanizing Revolution at Work:https://www.penguin.sg/book/emotional-inclusion/

Kids are vulnerable, and vulnerability longs for safety. Perhaps it's no wonder Jesus tells us to become like little children. Over time, our hearts grow hardened.In this episode, Josh describes what children need, and talks about the “why” behind the new KidsRQ (Relational Intelligence) curriculum. *Note: This is a continuation from last week's episode Cultivating Relational Intelligence in Kids Time Stamps:0:00 Introduction2:20 The vulnerability and dependence of a child9:40 The presence of Jesus in our healing journeyf11:50 KidsRQ curriculum layout and experiential exercises16:35 Get in with a free trial of KidsRQ Show Notes:Sign up for a free trial of KidsRQ! https://www.kidsrq.comJoin KidsRQ at the Founding Members rate: https://www.kidsrq.com If you're interested in a marriage you love, fill out this form: https://www.famousathome.com/loveyourmarriage Register now for the Tender & Fierce Fall Cohort: https://www.famousathome.com/offers/dDt2Aobj/checkout Download NONAH's new single Find My Way Home by clicking here: https://bellpartners.ffm.to/findmywayhome
“I tell you the truth, those who listen to my message and believe in God who sent me have eternal life. They will never be condemned for their sins, but they have already passed from death into life.” (John 5:24 NLT) One question that I’m often asked is, can Christians lose their salvation? People are afraid of this, and I think it’s for good reason. New believers often experience moments of doubt, and so do Christians who have known the Lord for many years. In fact, the first temptation the serpent presented in the Garden of Eden was to doubt God. He said to Eve, “Did God really say you must not eat the fruit from any of the trees in the garden?” (Genesis 3:1 NLT). In other words, “Did God really say what you thought He said?” The strategy worked so well in the Garden that the devil has been using it ever since. Causing God’s people to question God’s Word and God’s faithfulness is one of his favorite battlefield maneuvers. If he can shake your foundation, he gains an advantage over you. And, for believers, the most foundational belief of all is that if we’ve received Jesus as Savior and Lord, then we’ve been forgiven of our sins, we’ve been given the righteousness of Christ, and we will spend eternity in Heaven with Him. If the devil can get you to question those things, he can shake your foundation and open cracks in your faith. When you have thoughts like, “Maybe I’m not saved; maybe the Holy Spirit really isn’t living inside of me,” you need to stand on the Word of God, and not on your emotions. Emotions will fluctuate; the Word of God never will. Here are a few Scriptures to remind you of God’s faithfulness and prevent the devil from shaking your beliefs. “All who believe in the Son of God know in their hearts that this testimony is true” (1 John 5:10 NLT). “For his Spirit joins with our spirit to affirm that we are God’s children” (Romans 8:16 NLT). “I tell you the truth, those who listen to my message and believe in God who sent me have eternal life. They will never be condemned for their sins, but they have already passed from death into life” (John 5:24 NLT). “I have written this to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know you have eternal life” (1 John 5:13 NLT). “And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God’s love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow—not even the powers of hell can separate us from God’s love. No power in the sky above or in the earth below—indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord” (Romans 8:38–39 NLT). During His temptation in the wilderness, Jesus responded to each of the devil’s three challenges with the words, “It is written,” followed by a quote from Scripture. Jesus stood on ground that we, too, can occupy. When we quote Scripture, we not only bolster our faith, but we also keep the devil at a disadvantage. So, any time you start to question or doubt your salvation, turn to the Word of God—or, better yet, recite it from memory. The devil hates that. Reflection question: What would you say to a fellow believer who was afraid of losing their salvation?

Dr. Ira Rashbaum specializes in mind–body care and treatment of patients who have tension myoneural syndrome, previously known as tension myositis syndrome, a condition that causes pain and symptoms associated with tension and stress factors. His expertise is in diagnosing and treating individuals who have psychosomatic pain disorders. He has an extensive list of publications, national meeting presentations, and media appearances. As study guide committee chairperson of the American Academy of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, he led a project that compiled information on advances in rehabilitation medicine for more than 10,000 physicians worldwide. This position placed him at the forefront of all aspects of rehabilitation medicine. Dr. Samuel Mann is a physician and researcher, specializing in hypertension. He has spent the past 40 years as a specialist in this condition, combining patient care, research and teaching at his institution. As a researcher, he has published 65 articles in medical and psychology journals, along with 10 book chapters on hypertension, and three books. His most recent book is “Hidden Within Us; A Radical New Understanding of the Mind-Body Connection (2022). He emphasizes that in most patients, hypertension is not a mind/body disorder. But when it is, it is not related to emotions, such as anger and anxiety that patients report, but to powerful repressed emotions, often related to a past history of stress or trauma, that are completely hidden from conscious awareness. Part 1 The discussion included the following topics: definitions of repressed and suppressed emotions; common emotions that patients tend to repress; extent to which the biomedical model may have to be augmented or replaced as a means of having a greater emphasis on emotions and their unrecognized relationship to some physical health conditions; strength of evidence supporting a connection between emotions and physical health conditions; and the role played by emotional trauma on the onset of various physical health conditions.
In this episode, I discuss the state of relationships between Black men and women. I dive into emotional unavailability and emotional retardation and the effects they have on each other and the culture.

Dr. Glenn and Phyllis Hill welcome their grandson, Asher Hill, to share his journey of learning and practicing the Connection Codes Core Emotion Wheel from a young age. That foundation became life-saving when, at just 14 years old, he was hit with the emotional weight of his mother's cancer diagnosis. Now 16, Asher reflects on how this tool has carried him through high school pressures, football struggles, panic attacks, and family conflicts—and even how he uses it with his girlfriend to build a safe, honest relationship. His story proves that emotional intelligence isn't just for adults—no one is too young to learn it—and that authentic communication and safe spaces for vulnerability can transform every relationship, from family to friendships to future partnerships.Chapters:(00:00:00) Introduction & Disclaimer(00:02:59) Meet Asher(00:05:14) Why Asher is on the Podcast(00:06:59) Early Memories of Connection Codes(00:08:06) Cousin Conflict(00:10:38) The "Three Sentences" Rule(00:12:56) The Core Emotion Wheel as a "Game Changer"(00:15:56) Learning as We Go(00:19:12) A Cousin-Led Resolution(00:21:44) Navigating a Mother's Illness(00:26:28) Emotional Suppression as a Coping Mechanism(00:27:32) Inhale, Exhale: The Flow of Emotions(00:29:07) The Gym Analogy for Emotions(00:30:44) The Weight of Unprocessed Feelings(00:36:11) Asher's Core Emotion Wheel(00:38:23) Using the Wheel in a RelationshipLinks and Resources:Download the Core Emotion Wheel: https://youtube.com/@connectioncodes?si=phORYBsGMOOrj9mAFind out how to become a Certified Coach: https://connectioncodes.co/certified-coachingFind a coach: https://connectioncodes.co/coaches#find-a-coach-menu
What happens when the most challenging part of leadership isn't the work, but the weight of emotions you're expected to carry? In this episode, I dive into the hidden emotional labor of leadership, sharing stories from my own life—both at home and in professional settings—to explore how leaders, especially women, navigate the delicate balance of awareness, empathy, and action. I reflect on moments when stress and frustration threatened to derail me, and I show how cultivating self-coaching and grounding practices can help turn emotional turmoil into clarity and calm. If you've ever felt the weight of others' emotions in your work or questioned how to stay centered while guiding a team, this episode offers both validation and practical insight into leading with presence, perspective, and poise.

In this episode, Phil Brown and Lisa Hunt discuss the upcoming workshop offering, 'Navigating Challenging Dialogue,' exploring its framework, importance, and real-life applications. They delve into the reasons why people avoid difficult conversations, the steps involved in preparing for such dialogues, and the benefits of personal scenarios in workshops. The conversation emphasizes the value of communication skills in various contexts, aiming to equip listeners with tools to navigate challenging dialogues effectively. Navigating challenging dialogue is a common human experience. Many avoid difficult conversations due to fear of damaging relationships. Preparation is key to effective communication in challenging dialogues. The process involves identifying the story in your head and relevant facts. Emotions are important but should be managed during difficult conversations. Real-life scenarios enhance the learning experience in workshops. Everyone can benefit from improving their communication skills. The workshop is designed for anyone in a position to give feedback. Challenging conversations can strengthen relationships rather than harm them. Having a clear process reduces anxiety in difficult dialogues.

Thoughts lead to emotions, which lead to actions. If we don't take time to examine our thinking, we can become stuck in some very unproductive cycles in parenting our teenagers (and in other relationships).Just because we think something doesn't make it true or correct. And if our thoughts are untrue, what does that mean for our emotions and behavior?Today I talk about how cognitive biases, distortions, assumptions and shortcuts in our thinking can keep us in some very negative cycles of emotions and behavior. The more you think about your thinking, the more emotionally aware you become, which leads to greater emotional regulation.Show Notes and TranscriptFind our FREE Parenting Guides Here"I just wanted to let you know that I'm so thankful for your podcast! ...I'm so happy I discovered it!"
