Pain may be inevitable but it’s also a common experience, one that we can use to connect to each other if we can be brave.
Why do we suffer, and how can we move past it? Laura Lummer, host of 'The Breast Cancer Recovery Coach', tackles these deep questions in this episode. Drawing from her own experiences as a two-time breast cancer survivor, Laura sheds light on the Buddhist saying, 'Pain is inevitable, but suffering is optional'. She delves into the habits that keep us stuck in suffering, like comparing our pain to others or hiding it away.
Laura encourages listeners to face their pain head-on and use it as a bridge to connect with others. By acknowledging and embracing our suffering, we can find a deeper connection with ourselves and those around us. This episode is packed with practical advice on healthy thinking, mindfulness practices, eating well, and staying active. Laura emphasizes that minimizing your own suffering or elevating someone else's doesn't help anyone. Instead, she offers tools for personal growth and connecting through shared experiences.
Tune in for an empowering conversation that will inspire you to turn your pain into a source of strength and connection.
