Several times a day, I’m reminded of how important it is to feel. I don’t midpoint to be happy or sad, nervous or stressed out. But I midpoint to feel, really feel, an emotion coming over me or an whoopee that I’m taking. This might sound a little out there, or plane simplistic, so I hope you can stick with me for this post. But today, I want to share how valuable it is to actually, really, truly finger your feelings.

I’d love to write well-nigh this topic on a increasingly regular understructure but to be honest, it can be nonflexible to explain. At the least, nonflexible to explain succinctly. I know some of you reading this might be thinking “yeah, of undertow it’s good to finger your feelings. That’s why they’re tabbed feelings…” and I wouldn’t vituperation you. Feeling your feelings? It sounds like the most obvious thing in the world. But in response to that I moreover want to ask: if it’s so obvious, why is it so difficult to do?

That’s why today’s post isn’t so much an education as it is an struggle at an explanation. An subtitle of the true value of feeling your feelings. Of experiencing them in a full way, an immersive way, in the most intentional way possible. Because plane though it can be difficult or finger untellable at times, it’s very much worth it.

There is a lot of value in feeling your feelings (stay tuned for a future post on hearing it from the experts!), but today I want to share what it ways to me. Like everyone, my mental health journey isn’t unchangingly easy. Sometimes I just want to requite up and let my uneasiness and peepers win that day. It’s exhausting, it’s taxing and to be honest, I’m not unchangingly up to the task.

And in those moments, I do have trouble feeling. Whether it’s understanding or empathy for myself, sitting with those feelings is difficult. But I remember that I don’t unchangingly finger this way. I think when to a moment of a feeling or emotion where I felt so much like myself that it unquestionably freaked me out a little. I remember that I have felt so many things in my lifetime, and I will finger them again.

To me, that’s the value of feeling, of sitting with your emotions and processing them in real time. Those moments remind me of what I need to protract on my journey. They remind me I’m a real person experiencing real things like everyone else. It might not sound like much, but it’s unbearable to get me to the next moment, and the one without that. And soon, it’ll get me to the next feeling, and I can once then wits the enormous value of stuff like myself.

Now, over to you! It’s difficult to try and understand the importance of my own feelings – would you agree? Is it easy to understand your own feelings, or do you finger like it’s a challenge? Let me know in the comments!
