“If we understand what helps us become a more resilient person, we can actually deepen our resiliency zone and expand.” - Rebekah Tayebi

In this episode, Ronnie and Hailey talk to therapist and family coach Rebekah Tayebi about mindfulness, yoga, and meditation as practices that can help us come back to our bodies when faced with trauma. Learn all about the resourcing technique used to improve your current state of mind while getting to know yourself. You'll also learn to recognize the habits you have acquired from your parents, and see how to accept what you want to keep from them - while rejecting what it’s not yours in this path of life.

Enjoying suffering is a great tool that starts with acceptance. As we deal with hard times like a break-up or a loss, it's essential for us to accept the situation and be receptive so we can deal with, and even enjoy, those difficulties.
