A good friend once told me that emotion is just energy in motion. Energy wants to flow, to move through us but something we've been taught over the years prevents us from extracting these deep seated emotions. Grant yourself permission today. Scream in the car, cry on a friend's shoulder. Let it out.
we sometimes try so hard to hold on to our emotions, not to show the world how we REALLY feel... it can only hold for some time, before it burst out... I should certainly work on this - let out more often...
ReplyDeleteAs Pablo often points out, I find it hard to connect to my emotions. I forget they are there until I find myself screaming in the car. Let's make a pact to release our emotions more often :)
DeleteI think that showing our emotion is actually a sign of strength and not the sign of weakness like so many people view it as. Letting out our emotion is quite cathartic in my opinion. Great post Vanessa :-)
ReplyDeleteI think we judge ourselves more than others judge us. If we are feeling anger we also feel weakness or guilt for allowing ourselves to experience the negative emotion. But really, it's like a deep tissue massage, we have to let the toxins out before they create knots inside our body.
Deletenot one of my strengths...i just keep it all in and pretend that its doesnt bother me...im sure that one day i will explode.omg

Music may be a good outlet for you Brian. Lean into the song and feel the wavelengths move through your body, triggering and releasing various parts of your body.
