In this episode, Dr. Gina explains why people who struggle can resort to numbing strategies. How numbing is a coping mechanism to avoid dealing with difficult feelings and emotions. She explains creative ways people find to avoid pain and the negative impact numbing can have on our life. She explains healthier ways to cope with emotions we tend to avoid.
Finally, we look at the important role of feelings and emotions in our life and how we have grown as a society to be disconnected from our bodies, and live from the neck up.
