Can I Fall in Love Again?
Most people have suffered a romantic breakup at least once in their life, a part of these people can quickly recover from that situation, start another relationship again and do much better, but there is another part that finds it difficult to meet new people and get into a romantic relationship after suffering a heartbreak. This happens because they are afraid of being hurt or betrayed again, and it is normal to feel fear since they have associated that falling in love can lead to suffering, and feeling fear makes our body stay alert to any activity that may unbalance our tranquility. To overcome this and be able to allow yourself to build a new relationship, it is important to avoid regretting what happened and to pause and reflect on the extent to which we have been responsible for that breakup and in what we have contributed, even if it may sound very harsh. All this to improve the necessary aspects and thus obtain better results. If we do not do the personal work, we would fall into immature cycles in the next relationships or take an unconsciously repressed attitude, for example, thinking that if less effort is invested in a relationship, then we will be safe from the heartbreak. In those moments you may not be comfortable with loneliness, but you won't feel comfortable in a relationship either, remember that being alone is not bad, on the contrary, sometimes it is necessary and at the same time it is a strength to know how to live with yourself so that later you can be ready to share yourself. In this episode, Dr. Carmen will be talking with Psychotherapist Rocío Gutiérrez, who will tell us about why it can be scary to fall in love again, why it is important to work on ourselves before starting a new relationship, the components of fear, and how to know how to choose the adequate person for you.

Listening to your Intuition
Frequently we hear the phrase "listen to your intuition" but... do we really know the meaning of this word? Intuition refers to that ability with which we can reach correct conclusions from little information in a short time. They are those decisions that we take with the heart, not with judgment, that is why we also call it "hunch". We could be applying our intuition in daily situations, and sometimes we do it unconsciously since intuition is based on previous knowledge that we obtained during different experiences lived, and our brain stores them to use it as future problem-solving skills. An example of this could be the day-to-day tasks of a mechanic, every time they check a vehicle they know what could be failing and discover solutions, storing that knowledge in their memory; after a few months, another vehicle may come with a similar breakdown and only by hearing the sounds the vehicle makes they take risks giving a diagnosis and a possible solution because their intuition tells them that the past case can be repeated. Sometimes the absolute truth puts our intuition aside, but our intuition is a gift that we should always keep in mind and work on it, so if you want to know how to develop your intuition and listen to your inner voice, you cannot miss this episode of the Resilience series, where Dr. Carmen Román will be talking about this wonderful topic.   Learn Simple Steps to Manage your Anxiety!: https://academy.emotionsinharmony.org/courses/simple-steeps-for-managing-anxiety     Are you ready to enhance your overall life?

Emotional Neglect in Children
In our families, especially in Latino families, there is an almost imperceptible factor, since it is not a widely spoken concept, and it is emotional neglect during childhood, this is nothing more than the wrong way to proceed with emotional patterns from parents to children, where the young ones may begin to experience psychological and emotional damage in their present and that may leave consequences for their future. Unlike violence and abuse, which are directed in a greater proportion to the physical part, emotional neglect attacks the emotional and psychological side of the kid, this refers to that lack of connection between the father/mother towards the needs of the child, it is oriented in many cases towards omission and for this reason, sometimes it becomes imperceptible even for the same victim already in adulthood to identify if they suffered it. A very clear example of this concept is the differentiation of roles between the genders of the girl and the boy, and it can happen when they say to the male brother "you are the man of the house, and you have to take care of ...", the child can perceive this from a young age as his responsibility, and he tends to feel the obligation to exercise greater authority, sometimes even more than the mother herself. The same happens for girls when parents guide them to the path of submission where others are always to be put first and after tending to others, she can tend to herself. It is important to clarify that parents or adults involved in raising children do not necessarily have to have bad intentions or be classified as bad for stuff like this to happen, children do not come with a manual for parents, otherwise, there wouldn't be schools for parents. So parents, especially if they are first-time parents, do what they can and in most cases these behaviors and teaching or parenting methods are intergenerational inheritances, breaking these patterns is not so fast or easy. These forms of parenting bring with them many problems for the adult stage in these children, that is why we find people with problems expressing their feelings due to repression, which leads to problems in romantic relationships, they also lack maternal love, they have childish attitudes, low self-esteem, and many fears. Fortunately, there are ways to overcome it, that is why today Dr. Carmen brings you this valuable conversation with Karen Conlon, LCSW. To serve as a guide for you to explore your childhood, if it were your case, and you know what can be done about it to face it. Join us!

How I Manifested the Relationship of My Dreams
Choosing a good partner has always been difficult for most people, but why? To choose a good, compatible partner it's necessary to first know yourself, your likes, dislikes, and the goals that you want to reach in life. Keep in mind that this person that is going to come into your life will also have their own likes, hobbies, and goals. Are you willing to live with someone who smokes? Or someone who drinks? This is where filtering comes in, you must prepare a list of activities or behaviors that make you uncomfortable and start to separate the people that you meet by using the said list. It may sound quite aggressive to filter people this way, but if you think about it, the process of finding someone to spend the rest of your life with is a serious one, and the results we are aiming for is to find the best possible partner; one that can be as reliable and compassionate as possible. At times, the path of looking for a partner can be difficult and full of insecurities, but if you keep a positive attitude it can actually be very fun and easy. Join us today on this beautiful episode, where Dr. Carmen shares with us how she manifested the relationship with her husband, the steps she took, and some tips for the people out there who also want to manifest the relationship of their dreams!

Overcoming a Divorce
Going through the experience of a divorce without a doubt is a situation that no one wants to go through in their life regardless of the terms in which the relationship has ended. A divorce can be by mutual agreement or not, and it can even come as a surprise for one of the parties. The breakdown of a marriage can become a difficult situation to face and accept due to many factors, one of these factors and perhaps the one with the greatest weight that people expose is the situation with their children, since it affects the family environment and in some cases, it can start a legal dispute for custody of minors. Others may be emotional, social, and economic stability with the division of material goods.Breaking a relationship that was expected to last forever is a painful experience where both parties go through a complex grieving process and many times it is necessary to go to therapy to overcome it. When going through this process, it is beneficial to keep in mind several points so that it does not become so uphill, such as remembering the good moments lived, thanking the goals that were achieved together, not looking for a "guilty one", no playing the victim, speaking neutrally with the children, and finally understanding that if there is no longer any affection from both parties or shared interests, that it is a new opportunity to be happy.In this episode, Dr. Carmen Román will be talking with Dr. Maritza Mikolich about her thesis on resilience in Latina women who are going through a divorce process.

Body Image and Eating Disorders in Communities of Color
Throughout the years, eating disorders have been portrayed in media as if it's only a problem that affects heterosexual, young, white females, but in reality, eating disorders have no boundaries and can affect people from any ethnicity, culture, or gender. And even when we don't want to accept it, we have more cases of eating disorders in our communities of color than we think. Eating disorders are viewed and treated differently depending on the culture where the affected one comes from; in the case of communities of color, we have a very deep connection with food, sometimes even turning it into a love language. This connection makes it difficult sometimes for the affected ones to get the correct treatment and support from their loved ones. Knowing this, How can we help ourselves or our loved ones who might be struggling with body image or eating disorders? In this episode, Dr. Carmen Román interviews Dr. Ghynecee Temple, who will tell us in a very insightful way, why the cases of eating disorders in people of color are not portrayed in media as much, how trauma and eating disorders are linked, and what we can do to help other who are suffering from an eating disorder. Dr. Ghynecee Temple is a licensed and practicing psychologist at the University of Delaware. Dr. Temple earned her doctorate in Counseling Psychology in 2018 from Washington State University. She has been in the field since 2013 and has extensive experience working with clients within higher education settings. She is particularly passionate about teaching others how to overcome adversity in order to live a healthier life. Recently, she and several colleagues were presented with the Bright Initiative Award (2019) at the University of Delaware for developing a program geared to improve access to mental health services for people of color. Dr. Temple is continuously looking for creative avenues to bring her passion for wellbeing to others and has recently launched a YouTube channel dedicated to discussing mental health and other various topics. She utilizes therapy, consultation, teaching, and outreach as her tools to help others.    What will you learn? Where do eating disorders come from? Are eating disorders more common in communities of color than we might think?   How each culture deals with eating disorders. The attachment to food and different beliefs regarding it. Trauma and how it's related to eating disorders.

Healthy Emotional Dependence
The fact that a person has emotional dependencies is a very detrimental factor for oneself since well-being, tranquility and happiness cease to depend on them, becoming dependent on another person, thus, placing an obstacle when expressing their feelings or wishes. Emotional dependence is what happens when a person fosters a disproportionate affective bond that ends in addition to the other person, be it their partner, a relative, or even a friend. In some cases it is more difficult to get out of this situation since this dependence can be fed by the other person, making it a cycle. We always hear that phrase "He's my better half", claiming that one half is nothing without the other when the reality is not like that. Although it is true, in romantic relationships one person comes to complement the other; there should always be a balance and this does not mean that all the burden should fall on one of the two, each person has endless abilities, skills, knowledge, and even talents where they can surely fend for themself. It is possible to be independent again and for this, you must know what the symptoms of emotional dependence are, what could have originated it, and finally apply the recommendations. In this episode, Dr. Carmen talks about this important topic and shares some recommendations so that you can create a healthy relationship and prepare to add new people to your life in a healthy way and know which ones hurt you to separate from them.

Is it Good to be Curious?
People often associate curiosity as an undesirable trait, and when someone curious approaches us, we tend to avoid them. But is curiosity really a defect or a virtue? Being curious means having the desire to explore and learn more about what surrounds us or to explore a specific topic; curiosity forms an important role in the learning period of an individual, whether, from childhood or adulthood, curiosity apart from being healthy, induces us to learn and to acquire knowledge that can be useful for our life. But when does it stop being good and becomes a defect? It occurs when we use curiosity to inquire about things that do not add to us or that can lead us to not so positive consequences. Being curious can be the spark of many good things since it generates positive ambitions, helps develop creativity, gives us multiple possibilities of solving a problem, protects our brain, increases happiness, accelerates learning, and motivates us to explore. If you want to know more about this topic and how you can develop it to improve your life, join Dr. Carmen on today's episode! where she will talk about curiosity and how you can positively apply it in your life.

How to Talk About Sexuality to Your Children
When is a good time to talk to your children about sex? And what is the correct way to do it? Talking to children about topics such as sexuality and body development can be difficult and sometimes, depending on the culture, it can even be a taboo conversation. But, as difficult or uncomfortable as it may be, these conversations are vital to our children's development and maturity. Many parents try to avoid and delay this talk for as long as possible, however, children will come across these topics in conversations with their friends or on television, and there is a possibility that they will not turn directly to you to find the right answers to the questions that arise in their heads. This is why it is important that, as parents, we learn the correct way to address these hard topics with our children when it's needed, ensuring that the information they receive is correct. In this episode, Dr. Carmen interviews Holly Osment, LMFT.

The Effects of Music on our Body
Many people suffer from insomnia and/or difficulty sleeping, even more so when we can be subjected to stress, anxiety, or simply due to bad sleeping habits such as looking at the phone when we are already in bed or watching television until late at night. But surely at some point, we have all fallen asleep listening to some music in the background or we have witnessed how when humming a song to a child, they fall asleep almost immediately and this is due to the peace that our body perceives when it hears a melody. Music has a therapeutic effect since it is capable of releasing chemicals in our brain that allow us to feel relaxed and happy. When we listen to music the nervous system is cleansed and the body relaxes, making us feel freer, for this reason, some disciplines are accompanied by music to help the body enter a state of calm, such as yoga and meditations, or even when we go to a gym we listen to more animated music so that our body understands in some way that it is time to activate and emit the energy that is necessary, that is why it has been shown that people who listen to soft and relaxing melodies before going to sleep can rest much better. Music can be an important factor in the attitude of each person, depending on how we feel at a certain moment, we want to listen to a specific rhythm or even if we are not in the best mood we can resort to the music of our liking and raise our energies. Due to the positive effect that music gives us, it is a highly recommended method when we suffer from insomnia to listen to a soft melody, since it allows us to enter a state of peace, putting aside worries and offering us a space to imagine pleasant thoughts and get to sleep. In this episode, Dr. Carmen will be talking about relaxing music and the effect on people with Pablo Arellano, who is a composer and pianist who has participated in the direction of more than 8 films and in the production of more than 50 albums, Healing music creator and star of the Insight Timer platform.

Overcoming our Insecurities
The feeling of insecurity is usually a mix of uneasiness, fear, and nervousness that are triggered by multiple situations or thoughts that make us feel vulnerable or inferior to others.  For example, the feeling of insecurity can attack us when we think our beauty, intelligence, or situation in life is way worst than our friend's. Insecurity can be normal in small doses, however, when it persists for a long period of time and it interrupts your daily activities and thoughts, it is time to seek help.

The Turkey Dinner and Its Customs
*IMPORTANT NOTE: If you are going to be celebrating Thanksgiving, please remember to be socially responsible and follow the health rules for this specific global situation. What is something you are grateful for this year? Putting aside all the bad things we've been through this year, there are still a lot of things we can be grateful for. Like for example, we have learned to be patient, we have taken old hobbies and made time for them. We have also learned to be more grateful in general.  But there is still a lot of room for improvement in our life. And now that we are so close to celebrating Thanksgiving, it is a good time to reflect on how we can make ourselves better while helping others grow too. This little story makes us reflect on the way we act and how many times we assume that everyone has the same knowledge or privilege we've been lucky enough to have in our lives.   Join the Emotional Freedom Challenge!: https://emotionsinharmony.org/challenge/   Are you ready to enhance your overall life?
