Feel to Heal with Sharyn Nichols Most people use the words feelings and emotions interchangeably — but understanding the difference can completely change the way you relate to yourself. In this opening episode, we explore how emotions are physiological responses in the body, while feelings are the mental interpretations we attach to those experiences. That distinction may sound simple, but it has profound implications for healing, anxiety, relationships, and self-awareness. You’ll learn why emotions naturally move through the nervous system quickly, what keeps emotional suffering going long after the initial reaction, and how confusing feelings with emotions can keep you trapped in repetitive patterns. This episode lays the foundation for the entire series and offers a new framework for understanding your inner world with greater clarity and compassion. In this show, Sharyn Nichols, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and integrative guide, shares grounded psychological insight and nervous-system-informed tools to help listeners better understand emotions, reconnect with themselves, and begin healing from the inside out.
