What happens to your body when you’re living in a silent separation? Whether you experienced it before you were divorced and are now just putting a name to it, or whether you are still married and realizing something is going on that is affecting who you are, this episode of the Silent Separation Series is for you.

In this episode, we explore how emotional withdrawal, relationship stress, and suppressed emotions can show up in your body, from sleep and energy to tension, intimacy and unexplained pain.

You’ll also hear Rachel's personal pain story from when she was going through a silent separation late in her marriage, and how a trip Thailand was the epiphany that shook her to her core. Learn simple ways to reconnect with your body and yourself so you can heal.
