Emotional Release is not what you think 👇🏼
Here’s the Number 1 misunderstanding that keeps you from releasing your emotions:
🩸A lot of people ask me “What does releasing an emotion even mean?!”
I hear you. Here’s the answer:
First things first:
You don’t release an emotion from your body.
➡️Releasing an emotion means freeing it from the cage of resistance it’s been trapped in.
It’s about building a healthy relationship with your emotions, instead of trying to fix or get rid of them.
👇🏼Cause here’s the thing👇🏼
If you try to fix an emotion, you relate to it as if it was broken.
If you try to get rid of an emotion, you relate to it as if it was DANGEROUS. ❗️
Releasing an emotion means to break the spell of flawedness that was put onto you by a society that has never learned to feel.
👉🏼 An emotion is released once its message has been heard.
Because just like a child that hasn’t been seen or heard in an emotion, this dynamic might be restating in your adulthood.
Instead of witnessing the child/emotion, you want it to be different.
🚩To fix it.🚩
❌You make it wrong for being there.
But what does a child need?

✅Just like a child, your emotions need loving permission.
This doesn’t mean mindlessly allowing every harmful outburst of rage.
👉🏼 It’s a matter of relating:

It’s the knowing that your emotions are fundamentally okay, without any explanation, excuse.
They are valid because they exist.
Period.
With love,
