How to Feel the Feels!

As a life coach, one of my favorite things is to teach people how to "feel the feels"!  What does this mean?  I teach you to explore and describe how a feeling vibrates in your body.  

 What is the point of this?

We spend SO MUCH TIME in our lives trying to avoid feelings!  We avoid/buffer with shopping, eating, drinking, netflix, scrolling on social media.
We also resist and react to our emotions. 

I teach you to ALLOW the emotions...to actually FEEL the uncomfortable vibrations.

• frustration
• embarrassment
• inadequacy
• shame
• confusion
• anger
• doubt

and on and on!


WHY???

Because it teaches you that the worst thing that can happen is a feeling, a vibration that is felt in different areas of your body...and we can survive that. Even if it feels uncomfortable, it goes away after awhile.  We avoid doing so many things in life because we are afraid of the feeling!

 Once you learn this strategy, your life will get better! No joke!

You set bigger goals

You take more chances

You stop buffering with overeating and overdrinking

And you learn how to LEAN in and feel the good feels too!!! So much fun!

 
**If you are spending a lot of time avoiding or reacting to emotions (we learned this well in Medical School), please reach out.

It might sound crazy, but learning this really is KEY to feeling better!
