PODCAST MINI SERIES: Wake Up: Your Body Is Talking

With Barbara Thompson & Claire Chancellor
A transformative 4 x part series to explore the deep connection between your body, your emotions, your beliefs and your healing.

Ep 145: Stored emotions: What you don’t face lives in the body

What happens when we keep pushing our feelings down, pretending we’re “fine,” and distracting ourselves with being busy, scrolling or people pleasing?

In this powerful episode Claire and I unpack the real cost of emotional suppression and why so many of us learned to avoid what we feel often because of childhood wounds, trauma or fear of being “too much.”

We explore:
🌀 Why we suppress emotions and how it starts
🌀 Where key emotions live in the body: anger, grief, fear, resentment, shame
🌀 The silent damage of emotional bypassing and “good vibes only” culture
🌀 How avoidance becomes an autopilot response that blocks healing
🌀 Why feeling things as they arise is key to emotional freedom
🌀 Claire’s insights on energetic stagnation and the health consequences of unprocessed emotion

This episode is an invitation to turn toward your emotions gently, safely and with intention. Emotional honesty IS medicine.
