How to Stop Emotional Overwhelm and Step Off The Carousel of Despair

Discover how to step off the cycle of emotional pain, fear, and self-doubt and enjoy emotional freedom and inner peace.

Have you ever felt stuck in an emotional loop where pain, fear, or self-doubt keep circling back, no matter what you try? In this episode, you’ll learn how to gently step off that ‘Carousel of Despair’. We explore how reconnecting with our Inner Child, working with our emotions instead of against them, and embracing the concept of wu wei (effortless effort) can lead us to emotional freedom and inner peace.

With your hosts, David James Lees (ordained Taoist monk, emotional and spiritual health teacher) and Alexandra Lees (mindset and business coach).
