Hello, thrivers. This is Laura Monk with thrive therapy and counseling. And in this podcast today, I'm going to talk about what to do with emotional pain. I'm going to explain what not to do and then what you do want to do. I'm going to start with what not to do with your emotional pain. We do not want to suppress it. That is, not thinking about it. We don't want to deny it, pretend that it doesn't exist

Through the hard times. You'll lose your intuition. You'll lose connection with yourself. You will become robotic, almost not humanlike. You will start to do to others what you did to yourself. For example, you will start to gaslight shame, avoid and dismiss other people's pain because that's what you did to yours. Now, I doubt that you want those things to happen, so this is why it is so important to actually process, feel, integrate, and metabolize our pain
