Unlock the secrets to emotional healing and mindful living in our latest episode with Annette Dubreuil, a passionate Canadian advocate for sustainability. Annette brings a wealth of knowledge and a unique approach to connecting with our bodies and nature through the practice of focusing. Inspired by Gene Gendlin's groundbreaking work, Annette shares her personal journey and insights into how this technique can transform your emotional well-being, particularly for those wrestling with emotional eating and addiction.

Discover the six steps of focusing and learn how to create a grounded state by "clearing a space" and recognizing your physical sensations. Annette guides us through the process of identifying, describing, and understanding these sensations to achieve a sense of resonance and relief. By acknowledging different 'parts' of ourselves, such as the pleaser, the numbing part, and the critic, we can foster a compassionate relationship with our inner experiences. Annette's method offers a profound way to reconnect with our body's innate wisdom, providing a foundation for healthier emotional regulation and self-awareness.

Explore practical applications of focusing for emotional awareness and mindful eating. Annette emphasizes the importance of recognizing our body's signals and incorporating self-compassion into our daily lives. By listening to our body's cues and addressing them mindfully, we can reduce emotional highs and lows, leading to more balanced eating habits and a more harmonious relationship with food. Join us for an enlightening conversation that could be a pivotal moment in discovering a valuable life skill to enhance your emotional health and overall well-being.
