Four Reasons Paying Attention to Body Sensations Eases Us through Difficulty, Including Stress, Panic and Depression

May 20, 2023 • Sarah Vallely • Season 2 • Episode 49

In this episode, Sarah and her guest, licensed therapist Mike Comparetto, discuss why simple body awareness exercises help us better process our emotions, gain a better perspective and move us through difficult situations in a healthy way. Our psyche comes up with a million reasons to resist our experience. And we usually follow through on most of them. However, accepting, instead of, resisting our experience is better for us in the long run. Listen to this episode and learn how you can easily use mindfulness to move into acceptance and feel more confident, calmer and more empowered.
