#52: Spiritual Bypassing The Trap That Blocks Real Healing

Have you ever rushed to forgive someone, or forced yourself to feel positive, before you'd even let yourself feel what was really there?

That's spiritual bypassing, and it can look spiritually mature from the outside, while the real emotion just gets pushed further down.

In this episode you'll discover why spiritually inclined and highly sensitive people are especially prone to this pattern, why pushing an emotion away doesn't make it disappear, and how working with the energy of the heart lets you truly feel and release what's there, without becoming overwhelmed by it.
