This concept is so freeing… ready?
It’s good to feel sad, angry, stressed… because it’s
part of being human. Those emotions that we tend to label as
negative emotions and judge ourselves for feeling are not the
problem. The actual problem is the label, not the emotion
itself.
And here’s the best part, the way you get through
those emotions- the sadness or the stress is by not trying to feel
the opposite but by simply not labeling these emotions as good or
bad.
When we label our emotions, if often makes those
emotions bigger. If you feel jealous and you feel badly about
feeling jealous, it gets bigger. If we shift to this new
emotional awareness and acceptance for our feelings, we recognize
that all emotions serve a purpose. By having the
non-judgements attitude toward emotions, we move through emotions
faster and solve problems more efficiently.
It makes us more emotionally resilient and have
healthier coping strategies, which is so much more awesome than
running yourself down about how you feel. Let’s unpack
it!

go through…

feelings.

take.
