What are you like at sitting with emotions? It can be so easy to distract ourselves, or numb ourselves – by reaching for a drink or a device, or even by going up into our heads and getting lost in rumination.One of my guests who told me he had to embrace sitting with emotions was the former UK Special Forces soldier and Royal Marine Commando turned explorer, adventurer, investigative journalist and TV presenter Jason Fox. Foxy has made a remarkable recovery after being discharged from the army with PTSD. After coming close to suicide, Foxy started 'looking inwards' to process his trauma.In this episode:the importance of acknowledging your emotionsWhat NOT to do when you wake up feeling out of sortsApproaching your feelings with compassionFoxy's definition of REAL resilience - stemming from being compassionate with yourselfJason Fox twitter: @jason_carl_foxOther links: https://linktr.ee/jasonfoxWebsite: https://www.jasonfox-official.com/"A fox can be smarter than a wolf" - Jason FoxMyTwitter: https://twitter.com/simonmundieInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/simonmundie/And for the 'Mundie on Monday' newsletter - featuring three of the best Life Lessons from four years and 200 of these conversations - head to simonmundie.com (where you can also drop me an email)Please do share this episode with anyone who struggles to embrace their emotions, or on social media - it makes a big difference.
