In honour of World Mental Health day , I’d like to speak about being vulnerable with your own self.
What does this vulnerability look like? To be able to identify your emotions and feelings is part of that journey. Sit with yourself today and ask yourself when was the last time I checked up on my emotional well-being?
In this busy world we live in we tend to neglect our emotions and feelings. Especially for individuals in demographics or cultural upbringings that don’t support this.
The safest you’ll ever be is when you can be real with yourself and just feel. Cry it out, write it out, feel it out. To be numb and ignore your emotional health is akin to eating without tasting.
As in, you might be eating the food but you aren’t enjoying the flavours. Your emotions are the flavour of life. It allows you to know how you are doing and how you want to feel on this plane of existence ( earth).
So the next time you feel sad, angry, upset … sit with these emotions and feel. Watch them and learn how to regulate them.
Therapy and coaching can help you with this and there are many resources on how to do CBT therapy.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy essentially allows you to categorize your feelings from your thoughts and actions.
Hope this information helps and you enjoyed the content.
Happy World Mental Health Day all! Global healing and wellbeing is the theme this year 💜
