Tender Revolution Ep. 8: The Magic Yes

As Carl Jung taught us, what we resist, persists, and what we allow transforms. The things within us that we deny will continue to control our lives from the unconscious. It is only in releasing resistance that we free emotional energy to change. In this episode, Catherine guides you in a simple and powerful technique - the magic yes - that has personally helped her hold and shift the most difficult of emotions.

Christmas depression has been with me for years. Every year I ride above it and finally feel better by New Years. But because I’ve been listening to your beautiful meditations lately, I looked for one that might help me ride ‘through’ it. The title intrigued me and it was exactly what I needed…to stop saying ‘no’ to the sadness, disappointment and grieving I’ve pushed down and say ‘yes’ to the painful emotions I’ve never dealt with. There was some resistance as I said yes and I embraced that too, as you lovingly suggested. Bless you dear Catherine ❤️

Since starting Catherine’s work and practicing regularly I’ve become so much more attuned to my body and am learning to trust what it says. Thank you so much Catherine.

Did it once, need to do it again. That Jung was one smart guy! Thank you for bringing this to us, Catherine 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Practicing shadow work with Catherine has been transformative for me. My heart feels lighter and more open. At first, I noticed I was feeling more empathy. Then I noticed that a I was laughing easier and experiencing more moments of pure joy. The Magic of Yes is the talk I keep coming back to most. It has helped me go deeper into the Allowing Step in Tara Brach’s R.A.I.N. Practice. To Catherine, I send my love and gratitude.
