The Healing Power of Tears: Why Crying Matters in Breast Cancer Recovery

Crying has been shown to increase attachment behavior, which means it encourages closeness, empathy and support from friends and family.
Ever been told to 'suck it up' and not show your tears? Laura Lummer, the voice behind 'The Breast Cancer Recovery Coach', is here to challenge that old notion. In this heartfelt episode, Laura opens up about the surprising benefits of crying, especially for those on the tough journey of breast cancer recovery. She dives into how societal norms have often discouraged us from shedding tears, but science tells a different story.
Crying can actually help release pent-up pain and foster emotional well-being. Laura shares her own struggles with holding back tears and how it impacted her healing process. She also introduces listeners to the touching book 'The Boy, the Mole, the Fox, and the Horse', which offers profound insights into emotional expression. Alongside this, Laura discusses practical tools and practices for managing emotions in a healthy way.
This episode isn’t just about crying; it’s about understanding the importance of emotional release and finding safe spaces to express your feelings. Tune in for an encouraging conversation that might just give you the permission you need to let it all out.
