Hey Hey!

In this week's episode of Just For Today, I, Steph Grainger, therapeutic mentor, delve into the profound connection between our bodies and the unconscious mind.

Join me as I explore the concept of secondary gain—where the unconscious mind finds more to gain from not healing than from healing. I discuss how the body holds onto tension and pain, both emotional and physical, and how this manifests in our daily lives. Discover how the body keeps score, always winning, and what this means for your personal healing journey.

Through insightful conversations that I have had in the last 14 years, I have uncovered the hidden reasons behind why some pain feels more manageable than the uncertainty of change. This episode is a must-listen if you're ready to understand what your body might be holding onto and how to begin the process of letting go.

In this episode I mention my friend and core and pelvic floor specialist, Emma Riedo. More info on Emma can be found HERE .
