Descripción

Sometimes, life confronts us with something so intense that it pulls us right into trauma, fear takes over, emotions overwhelm, and we lose our sense of presence. In this teaching, I share a deeply personal moment from my father’s sickbed, when I was asked to do the unthinkable… and what helped me stay conscious instead of collapsing into trauma. This video isn’t about avoiding pain — it’s about staying conscious enough to keep pain from becoming trauma. It’s about remembering yourself inside intensity, staying soft, open, and connected no matter what arises.  Learn more at www.emotioncodex.com [http://www.emotioncodex.com]

When Sensitivity meets an Aggressive Neighbour - How to Prevent yourself from Loosing it

In this Vera Illuminates episode, I talk with a highly sensitive man who struggles with an aggressive neighbour. He wants to stay open and compassionate, yet his body tightens every time the neighbour starts drinking or shouting. Together, we explore what happens inside him — the energetic impact, the contraction, and how to find inner stability without closing the heart. You’ll witness how sensitivity, awareness and grounded presence can transform even intense encounters.

In this Vera Illuminates conversation, I meet a woman with strong leadership and management qualities who keeps facing rejection in her job search. How is it possible that someone with so much potential is turned away again and again? Together, we explore whether rejection might not only be a ‘no,’ but also an invitation, an opening to discover where your true path lies and what your inner system is trying to tell you. ✨ In this conversation: - How to deal with repeated rejection - What it may reveal about your direction and purpose - How to embody leadership in a new, authentic way Vera Illuminates shows that behind every obstacle lies a deeper message guiding you closer to your true self.  Learn more at www.emotioncodex.com [http://www.emotioncodex.com]
