Feeling your emotions can be uncomfortable, especially if youāve learned to stay āup,ā stay positive, stay okay.
For some, slowing down long enough to actually feel something can make the body panic a littleā¦
Our emotions donāt need managing.
They just want to move.
And sometimes that movement looks nothing like we have been taught.
It isnāt always high vibes, expansive, aligned or inspired.
Often itās the oppositeā¦..a dip, a wobble, a contraction, a moment where everything feels too much.
That doesnāt mean youāre going backwards. It usually means your system finally feels safe enough to let something rise.
Just like the earth cycles through expansion and contraction, your body does the same.
Thereās nothing wrong with the low points. Theyāre not signs that youāve lost progress or going backwards, theyāre part of how your system regulates and releases.
And emotions respond better to kindness than control.
If you meet them with words of softness āitās okay youāre here, I see you, I can feel you for a momentā they tend to loosen on their own.
They donāt need fixing.
They donāt need you to stay strong or endlessly optimistic.
They just need a bit of space to be felt.
It isnāt about staying in the highest version of yourself all the time.
Itās about building a relationship with the full range. The surges, the dips, the openings and the contractions, without abandoning yourself in any of it.
When you stop fighting the waves, you realise they were never here to drown you.
Just to pass through you. š¤
