We dig into why traditional talk therapy sometimes hits a wall and how trauma—including the trauma of divorce—gets trapped in the nervous system.</p><p>We discuss the physiology of heartbreak, the power of breathwork to regulate your state, and how to move from simply &quot;surviving&quot; the split to actually embodying a new, healed version of yourself. If you are tired of spinning your wheels, this conversation offers a different roadmap out of the mud.</p> <p><a rel="payment" href="https://ko-fi.com/risingphoenixpodcast">Support the show</a></p><p><a href='https://www.risingphoenixpodcast.com'>https://www.risingphoenixpodcast.com</a></p>]]></content:encoded>
