Humans Are Dope | Mental Health, Trauma Healing & Personal Growth

Trauma, Urgency, and Pausing

Deana Panza Season 1 Episode 24

In this conversation, I emphasize the importance of taking pauses in our daily lives and during significant life transitions. I discuss how modern society's urgency can lead to a lack of presence and connection with ourselves. By incorporating small pauses, we can enhance our emotional well-being and celebrate our achievements, allowing for a more grounded and fulfilling experience in life.


I discuss:

  • A simple way to improve quality of life.
  • Urgency and survival mode.
  • The importance of consistently and often checking in with ourselves.
  • Pausing allows us to reconnect with our needs.
  • Mindfulness and questions we should be asking ourselves more.
  • How destructive urgency is.
  • Shifting the way we move through life.
