How To Stop Emotional Suffering. With GiGi Madl
Did you know it was possible to stop suffering?
Every human being can relate to the experience of emotional suffering.
We’ve all experienced sadness and loneliness and rejection and fear and loss and hurt…
It’s literally impossible to live a full life without encountering these kinds of painful emotional experiences.
But IS possible, with the right kind of training, to shift our emotional suffering into a state of ease.
What is suffering and why do we suffer?
Here’s the simple truth: all emotional suffering comes from our thinking.
It’s the thoughts in our heads that cause all the emotions we feel (the good and the bad.)
So we can control our emotions by controlling our thinking.
It’s as simple as that.
But it takes a lifetime to master...
And in this episode of Women Wanting Women I interview my friend GiGi Madl who has spent the last 21 years devoted to mastering the skill of shifting emotional suffering into a state of ease. I asked her to come onto the podcast to share her story and her best advice for how anyone, no matter what they’ve been through, can find a way out of suffering.
Processing grief through movement and dance...
Below is a video tribute that GiGi made for her ex-wife, Rayya Elias.
This beautiful tribute shows powerfully how we can use movement and music to shift and integrate intense life experiences such as death and loss as they happen for all of us.
