What are your feelings telling you?

“Maybe crazy is just the word we use for feelings that will not be contained.”
― Anna Quindlen

Day 20 of 31 day journalling challenge.

What are the feelings that you can’t contain?

How do they bubble up?

How do the waves of emotion pass through you?

How do they show up in your world?

I was once told by a very wise person that my feelings are messengers and they are trying to tell me something.

Sometimes it can take me a while to translate those messengers.

Journalling helps.

I ‘vomit’ my feelings on the page. I hot mess all over a side of A4 and I am sometimes shocked by what I write but it allows me stop gaslighting myself and get to the truth about how I really feel and name emotions I’m not ‘supposed’ to feel - envy, rage, irritation, distain.

There on the page.

Then you can explore further and ask questions - what’s the message here? What are your feelings trying to tell you? Are your feelings about a past situation or the present?

Today - explore without editing - how are you feeling and what are you feelings telling you?
