ep40: concussions, full moons, and the rabbit hole of "why"
Episode description
When something happens, the mind loves to know why.
It's so understandable, because sometimes knowing why can help us avoid things in the future. But sometimes, especially when related to our emotions and unwanted habits, the "why" can be a bit of rabbit hole. It's helpful to process past memories and see how the brain latches onto stories that no longer serve us. But sometimes we can't even remember the memory that caused it, or it could be multiple memories, or we just don't know. Sometimes it's helpful to just feel rather than seek. The feeling just wants to be felt so it can pass through. Endless seeking and storytelling only adds tension and resistance, and makes the feeling scarier than it really is.
