In this episode, we discuss:
1) Avoidance is a way to make you feel in control, to avoid rejection or to avoid discomfort. Avoidance behaviour is a way to cope with uncomfortable thoughts or feelings.

Our emotions can put us on a roller coaster daily; if we haven’t been taught how to feel them, recognize and process them if we have also been told to be afraid of them, we don’t know what to do with them. Then those unknown emotions become scary and unknown, and our subconscious mind deems unknown and unfamiliar as unsafe, so we avoid them at all costs.
“The mind is a super...
