Jocelyn Is Grateful To Know She Doesn't Need To Identify With Her Emotions
What 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 way
crying is an energetic and physical release your body asks you for
asking ourselves what we identify with and why
denying how we feel and accepting how we feel
getting overpowered by our emotions and consumed by our thoughts
witnessing your life experiences rather than becoming them
the power of awareness
gifting ourselves grace
