Better Than Before Breast Cancer with The Breast Cancer Recovery Coach Laura Lummer

In this podcast episode, we delve into the essential role of acknowledging and expressing anger, and the broader spectrum of our emotions, in maintaining mental and physical health.
Anger is a natural and healthy emotion when approached constructively. By allowing ourselves to feel and express anger, we open the door to understanding our needs and setting necessary boundaries. This process is critical for personal growth and relationships.
You’ll hear some expert insights explaining how repressing emotions, particularly anger, can lead to adverse effects.
Suppressing these feelings doesn't eliminate them; instead, they can surface as physical symptoms or illness. Chronic stress, linked to unexpressed anger, can manifest as headaches, high blood pressure, and even more severe health issues.
Psychologically, it can lead to anxiety, depression, and a diminished sense of self-worth.
The key takeaway is that embracing and expressing all our emotions, including anger, is not only liberally empowering but also essential for our overall well-being.

When you grow up in a world where you’re taught that other people embarrass you, hurt you, make you angry, etc. That translates into having no power over your emotions and living with a lot of stress. 

But what if you could recognize circumstances for what they are and decide to regulate your emotions on purpose? 

That’s when you start creating a life by design. 

A life that’s better than before breast cancer™ 

In this episode, I’ll share my personal journey through a stressful day and the challenge of coming back to caring for myself in the middle of the storm. 

I’ll walk you through the process I’ve learned to use to support myself and equally as important, how to know when you’re making yourself sick with stress so you can be there for yourself.
