Summary

Ever find yourself apologizing just for having feelings? Congrats, you're officially emotionally constipated—yes, that's a thing. It happens when you stuff your emotions deep down until they burst out at the worst possible moment (hello anxiety, meet embarrassment). This delightful cycle is extra fun if you're an HSP, by the way. Here's an idea: stop shoving your sensitivity into a corner like it’s misbehaving. Feelings need regular release, or they'll make your life awkward real fast. You're allowed to let it out—no apologies needed. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

1:48.9	Sometimes when we're talking about emotion, our mental processes, our thought patterns,
1:55.6	we're so disconnected from the body.
1:58.0	There's so much emotional intelligence within this bodily system, y'all,
2:02.7	that is right here as its own guru. It is our own system and it can teach us so much.
