7 Ways Listening to Sad Music Helps to Relieve Sadness

It may seem strange, but listening to sad music when you are sad can actually relieve sadness. With life lessons taken from Thomas Dorsey, often referred to as the father of gospel, this recording lists 7 benefits. It's important to note that while music can be a powerful tool for healing emotional pain, it shouldn't replace supportive friends, hobbies, active healthy living, and professional help. If you're experiencing intense or prolonged emotional distress, it's recommended to seek assistance from a mental health professional. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/wesurviveabuse/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/wesurviveabuse/support

Life Saving Lessons from Gavin de Becker's book The Gift of Fear

Published in 1997, lessons from Gavin de Becker's The Gift of Fear have saved lives. This book is a must-read! Here are some of the most well-known quotes and lessons from "The Gift of Fear": “I encourage people to remember that "no" is a complete sentence.” “No” is a word that must never be negotiated, because the person who chooses not to hear it is trying to control you.” “Niceness is a decision, a strategy of social interaction; it is not a character trait.” “It is understandable that the perspectives of men and women on safety are so different--men and women live in different worlds...at core, men are afraid women will laugh at them, while at core, women are afraid men will kill them.” “There’s a lesson in real-life stalking cases that young women can benefit from learning: persistence only proves persistence—it does not prove love. The fact that a romantic pursuer is relentless doesn’t mean you are special—it means he is troubled.” “Denial is a save now, pay later scheme.” “If you tell someone ten times that you don’t want to talk to him, you are talking to them—nine more times than you wanted to.” “The solution to violence in America is the acceptance of reality” “Believing that others will react as we would is the single most dangerous myth of intervention.” “We must learn and then teach our children that niceness does not equal goodness. Niceness is a decision, a strategy of social interaction; it is not a character trait. People seeking to control others almost always present the image of a nice person in the beginning. Like rapport-building, charm and the deceptive smile, unsolicited niceness often has a discoverable motive.” “Only human beings can look directly at something, have all the information they need to make an accurate prediction, perhaps even momentarily make the accurate prediction, and then say that it isn't so.” --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/wesurviveabuse/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/wesurviveabuse/support

As a Woman You May Find it Challenging to Stand Up for YOU If....

Maya Angelou's quote in Glamour Magazine 2012 got us thinking. Why do women sometimes find it challenging to put ourselves first. To prioritize our own needs. And to be on our own side, just for our own benefit. Without exception. Without apology. MAYA Angelou once said: “I'm interested in women's health because I'm a woman. "I'm sorry to say that has been the problem with a number of women. They're not on their own side, nor do they advocate for their own benefit. And so I think that every woman should be out there thumping the drum, first for herself. And many might think that’s selfish but the truth is you can only help somebody else if you’re in a position to help yourself.” Maya Angelou, Glamour Magazine 2012 --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/wesurviveabuse/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/wesurviveabuse/support

Our Soul Centering Conversation w Afro-Warriors Founder: Ruth Bermudez

Ruth Bermudez founded Afro-Warriors to help black women to come together and help embrace healing journey and self-development. Her company is inspired by her own experience with self-forgiveness and her journey towards self-worth and self-love. Words from Ruth: "The thing is I didn't quite know how or what to do to heal. Since I've surrendered, I wrote a note apologizing to myself for mistreating her (me) and most importantly neglecting my soul for all these years. I cut my damaged hair symbolizing me Removing the damaged pieces I was holding onto in life. Then I planted a seed symbolizing my spiritual growth and personal development. I want to be able to share my story and experience and reach out to millions of women, who are healing from domestic violence, Absent/hateful parents, betrayal from friends/family, and academic denial, who wants to find their self-worth...."
