Do the next right thing

This episode tracks my journey through a recent emotional earthquake.  Yes, it was a little shaky there for a while, but I made it through.  This one goes out to all members of the Big Feelings Club: You can make it through too - just keep going.

Going through it

<description>&lt;img src="https://assets.podomatic.net/ts/dd/84/9e/giveitup4good/3000x3000_10350929.jpg" alt="itunes pic" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This month is Feel Better February, where I get comfortable with getting uncomfortable, and learn to stay open and present to whatever is happening without running away, shutting down or spacing out.  This one's about big feelings - when they're too wide to go around, too deep to go under, too high to get over, you just gotta go through them - and know that you'll reach the other side.  No one says you have to get there alone though, so if you get stuck, phone a friend.

Addiction & Subtraction - Learning to Feel Better

In January I got sick and kinda tanked a bit on the effort front.  Result = three weeks of strength training, and one week of giving in.

They know that when you're scared, you'll probably want to run away.  I know I do.  Pema Chodron is also pretty wise, and she suggests something else: If you're exhausted from all that flight (or fight), try making friends with your fear.  So pop the kettle on and get your small self ready for a hug, 'cause here comes the love.</description>
