91: Ya Gotta FEEL It to HEAL It | Mastering Emotions 101

Emotions are part of the human experience. But it’s SO common to feel resistance or fear around actually FEELING your emotions.

So what do we do instead? We numb. We distract. We avoid. We try to fix.

In the past few months, I’ve used this practice (which I call “sitting in the sh*t”) to identify and acknowledge my feelings, sit in the discomfort of them, and not judge or label them as bad.

When you FEEL, you can HEAL. And when you’re willing to “go there” and feel uncomfortable, you also open yourself up to contrasting emotions such as joy, bliss, love and fulfillment.

I hope this episode and this practice helps you as much as it has for me!
