Keep reading to discover how you can take charge of your emotional well-being and start your journey to inner peace.


Repressed emotions don’t go away; they remain trapped in our bodies, affecting our physical and emotional well-being.


 

Why Do We Repress Our Emotions?


From a young age, we’re taught to ignore or suppress our emotions with phrases like: “Don’t cry,” “Don’t get angry,” or “Don’t be so sensitive.” This avoidance of emotional expression leads us to hide what we feel, viewing it as a sign of weakness. However, repressed emotions don’t disappear; they stay trapped in our bodies and, over time, accumulate, affecting both our physical and emotional health.


This unresolved emotional baggage can also manifest as muscle tension, unexplained pain, or recurring discomfort. According to Dr. John E. Sarno, our unconscious mind can even generate physical symptoms to divert our attention from repressed emotions we don’t want to face.
