5 Ways to Process Your Emotions

Today is about confusion… that leads to clarity… that leads to closure. Because we all want closure when we've been hurt, don't we? No one wants to live with the mess of being betrayed… dumped… cast out… lied to… gossiped about… canceled… or abandoned. In Eps 146 of WITH LOVE, DANIELLE, I’m sharing a personal story of extreme emotionality and what I’m doing to find closure. I’m breaking it all down into 3 steps for you. This is how we heal.

Loves, Today we’re diving into Shenpa—a Tibetan Buddhist term that’s translated as attachment, but it’s much more than that. It’s the hook, that triggering force that pulls us into habitual patterns of closing down. It’s the contraction reaction, not a conscious response.  You know that tight feeling? That’s Shenpa. It’s our soul’s invitation for integrity, pushing us to grow. Episode 145 of With Love, Danielle is about noticing the hook and making a better decision. It’s about not taking the emotional bait.  So that the next time you get triggered, take a breath, recognize the hook, and ask yourself, What’s my soul inviting me to do here?

My loves, what if processing emotions wasn’t so daunting? What if it could actually be... liberating?  In Episode 143 of With Love, Danielle, we’re diving into the heart of it—those sharp, sticky, sometimes scary feelings we all face—and learning how to transform them with love and compassion.  I’m sharing five super simple practices to help you release the heaviness, balance your nervous system, and invite in the happiness and ease that sits on the other side of processing those emotions. Because the more we attend to the stuff in the basement of the psyche, the more conscious we become. The more luminous, the more robust, radiant, strong… the more regulated and balanced our nervous systems become.  With love, Danielle   MENTIONED IN EPISODE 143: ✨Sacred Weekends is my (always free) newsletter for devotion + lifestyl’ish. 220k subscribers are digging it! 2 Fridays a month.

My loves, today, I’m bringing you the Shantideva Prayer—a powerful prayer that I’m committed to memorizing.  It’s a reminder that whenever we ask for support on behalf of helping someone else, we’re supported in return. This is about giving and receiving as one beautiful flow. We feelers, healers, seers, and everyday humans are called to alleviate suffering and amplify joy wherever we can. This prayer is a testament to that devotion. Ep 142 of WITH LOVE, DANIELLE is here to help move pain through us, like clouds across the sky, because we’re the sky—expansive, vast. We don’t hold onto suffering; we expand our commitment to serve. To be the lamp for those in the dark, the love wherever we go.

What do you associate with rejection? What’s the antidote to rejection? What does liberation mean to you? What does ”spiritual success” mean to you? And what do these questions have to do with more emotional intimacy in all of your relationships…? Everything! Nothing about another person makes us suffer. Healing is loving the unloved parts of ourselves. It’s that simple (and profound and life-long.) Listen in to this highlight from the MUCH DEEPER INTIMACY workshop in the Heart Centered Membership.

I’ve been thinking a LOT about the concept of mercy this year. My very basic definition: Mercy is when we just wish for someone to catch a break. That simple.  Mercy is the bonus deal that comes from Compassion.  Today I’m rolling through the spiritual and practical definition of COMPASSION. What does it look like according to the mystics, and what does it look like in our emails and our self care? Side note: I know we’re all extra full of emotions these days. And I know giving your full attention to a podcast can seem like another thing “to-do.” I’d love your full attention but I have another invitation: just hit play and let me roll in the background. You don’t have to “learn” or take notes. Just let this energy be your sidekick as you do what you need to do. Your subconscious self will get what it needs to get. Your conscious self will remember what you need to remember. Just breathe. Eps 137 of WITH LOVE, DANIELLE is here to help you be Compassionate with all of it.
