🎙️"I think one reason why we are so fearful of feeling our emotions is because we fear that we are going to become them." - JocelynWhat if we could feel our emotions without becoming them? Well, we can. We don't have to become what we feel. We can simply feel what we feel and acknowledge that what we are feeling is an experience, not an identity. In our last one-on-one conversation where I expressed my gratitude for allowing myself to feel my emotions, I touched on how grateful I am to respond to my emotions the way I do. In this episode, I expand on that a bit more and share a recent experience I had where I got triggered by a show and found myself getting consumed by my emotions, which then manifested into getting consumed by my thoughts. I share what I changed when I caught myself getting consumed and overpowered and why it's important that we shift our response when we catch ourselves experiencing our emotions in this way. We can have a healthy relationship with our feelings. There is a way for us to feel without those feelings becoming all of what and who we are. There is a way for us to fearlessly welcome our emotions, knowing they have something important to express. The main topics I touch on in this episode include:responding to triggers in a healthy waycrying is an energetic and physical release your body asks you forasking ourselves what we identify with and whydenying how we feel and accepting how we feelgetting overpowered by our emotions and consumed by our thoughtswitnessing your life experiences rather than becoming themthe power of awarenessgifting ourselves grace🕰 Timestamps0:00 Intro2:26 I've Been Emotional Lately3:54 Crying After Years Of Not Crying7:50 Assessing What We Identify With11:57 I Got Triggered The Other Day13:30 Moments Of Denying Feelings14:53 Getting Consumed15:22 Taking The Seat Of The Observer19:55 Awareness Is Powerful20:40 What's Important?21:43 My Emotion Is My Friend22:38 This Is A PracticeSupport the showThank you for bringing this podcast into your present moment and thank you for consciously listening!
