Episode #23. Coping mechanisms

The School for Mystics

What does the expression “to cope” mean to you? Are you aware that you -and everyone around you- have been developing coping mechanisms throughout your life? How does that happen? How does a coping mechanism work? Think about it for a second before you continue reading... For some people, coping with emotions they don’t want to feel looks like escaping from them and isolating themselves from people and circumstances that evoke these feelings. For others, it looks like self-destructive behaviour or chasing extreme experiences. The modern world is certainly interesting in terms of the bashing amount of coping mechanisms it offers, always inviting us to run away from ourselves. We inadvertently build a reality in which the biggest threat is to feel… and the struggle feels very real. In this episode Marina and Misha will explore unknown paths for your thoughts and emotions... You will understand: - how to see the difference between a real threat and an imaginary one. - why in order to avoid rejection we create a situation where we can be rejected. - how understanding the design of the human mind helps to cope with undesired emotions. - why the inner struggle is always optional and how you can realize this impactful truth. Allow your feelings to flow freely through you, release them all and uncover a new experience full of joy.
