Why and How To Feel Your Emotions
In my 25 years of private practice, the #1 issue I worked on with clients was feeling their emotions.
Whether someone was anxious, reactive and raging or numb to the world, the question they were all asking was, “What the heck do I do with these emotions?”
I’ve been there too. And it breaks my heart, because experiencing emotions is one of the gifts of being human.
But the good news is that all of us can reclaim this part of ourselves and learn to feel our emotions. And when we do, it unlocks all kinds of possibilities in life!
In this episode, I’m breaking down why it’s so important that we learn to feel our emotions and some practical ways to do that. I’m also addressing some of the common fears and discomfort around feeling emotions (like, “What if I get stuck in this emotion?”) and helping you understand why this is your birthright – and how it can improve your relationships, your intuition and your life!
Listen to discover:
● Why it's so important to feel your emotions
● Why most humans struggle with this
● Four practical ways to feel your emotions
● How to connect with your inner child
● How to overcome blocks in feeling emotions
No one is born without emotions, but along the way, we learn to suppress them – and in turn, disconnect from who we really are.
Feeling emotions is the key to connecting back to yourself and one of the foundational pillars of being a healthy adult. I hope this episode helps guide you back to this essential part of you.
