 Deeply hidden fears, hurts, and longings may lead to symptoms and eventually maladaptive behaviors. Such unhealed wounds may become acute or chronic triggers if our defenses against the reservoir of pain are failing. They can be triggered by a person, object, smell, sound, dream, illness, or more. Our buried memories and emotions surface in ways that may sabotage us.  

Knowing our emotions and the shifts in the here and now is crucial since our feelings are rooted in past events that may have no obvious context today, yet control our attitudes and behaviors in ways we don’t understand. An effective way to confront our inner life, including an inner saboteur, is to get in touch with shifts in our body that can help us label our emotions and interpret and understand our feelings. Mindful self-reflection enables us to become aware of buried events from our past. Such reflection is a two-part process of focused self-exploration that involves going inward and upward — identifying our physical sensations and labeling our emotions, and then thinking about what they mean. It involves introspectating, combining introspective (looking inward) with spectate (looking on as a spectator).  

 Jackie Heller, MD, a psychoanalyst, is board certified in psychiatry and neurology. Her professional experience as a practicing clinician has allowed her extensive insight into the vast range of human experiences.

In today’s episode, James talks with Dr Heller about her new book, Yesterday Never Sleeps. This ook delves into her personal experience with family trauma and helping others work through their own.
