Preparing for the journey:
(1) Unpacking unwanted emotions:
To be ready for a journey, we need to make sure we carry the right stuff with us. We may need to unpack and offload some stuff that is going to slow us down and that gets in the way of progress. It’s OK to feel the feels and we should respect how we feel. But sometimes emotions get in the way of us thinking clearly. So to really think objectively we may just need to tune in to those feelings and learn to tune it down to clear up our headspace.
5 steps to hush down those negative emotions:
- Name the emotions that you are feeling e.g anger, jealous, sad, etc
- Which is the predominant emotion?
- Give that emotion a nickname and step back from that emotion
- What distorted thinking is causing this emotion
- Reframe or reappraise the situation.
