Energized with Dr. Mariza 326: Powerful Techniques to Feel and Process Your “Mess,” Including Breathwork, Meditation, and Movement w/ Ashley Bernardi
If You Are Ready To Heal Your Messy Emotions or Trauma, You Should:
- Give yourself permission to heal
- Sit with your emotions and adopt tools to help you process them
- Embrace your own authentic power
The holiday season brings new levels of stress and worries to many people. This stress can trigger us out of nowhere or by small things. The key to dealing with these triggers is by learning not only what to do to manage your triggered moments but also how to implement strategies when you need them the most.
Embrace Your Authentic Power with Ashley Bernardi
Ashley Bernardi is a trained journalist who has written for some of the biggest publications nationwide and the founder of the powerhouse media firm Nardi Media. When the emotions she oppressed after the traumatic death of her father at a young age began to manifest into disease and depression later in life, Ashley deepened her commitment to health, wellness, spirituality, and her own authentic power and is passionate about helping others do the same.
Listening to Your Body Through Stillness
The strategies needed to process messy emotions and trauma may be simple, but they take practice, awareness, and the desire to listen to your inner wisdom. Permitting yourself to start feeling and truly sitting in silence to listen to what your body needs can instantly change your state of panic into relaxation.
Instead of trying to numb or distract yourself from your emotions, Ashley’s work is all about honoring and accessing your wisdom from within so that you can find true transformation and healing.
You Hold Healing Power Within Yourself
Ashley has created the FEEL Framework to help people focus on their emotions, enter their emotions, experience their emotions, and listen, learn, and love that emotion. By sharing your voice, putting up boundaries, giving yourself permission to say no, and being vulnerable, you can share and address your feelings in real-time in order to heal.
Making space for brave conversations, being grateful for every emotion you feel, and knowing that everything is temporary are key constructs to Ashley’s journey to embracing her authentic power. The power to decide if life is happening to you or for you is within reach, and every one of us, all we need to do is learn how to listen.
