    Steps:
    1. Acknowledge and name the emotion
    2. Pause and notice - don't avoid emotion or use distractions
    3. Sit in silence for 5 mins.
    4. Reflect on your day 5 mins before sleep
    5. Emotional chart- name the emotion
    6. Don't justify your feeling
    7. Moving forward- the feeling may come up again but it will less intensive every consecutive time.
    Feel empowered for acknowledging and resolving your feelings.
    Have an healthy coping mechanism: exercise/ journaling/ talking to therapist, partner, friend/ walking/ pursue hobby/ shower/sleep.

    From the perspective of someone a little older, if you’re working on any of this stuff in your 20s, and think that you’re behind in any way, I definitely want to let you know that you absolutely are NOT. ❤ There are so many people who continually go throughout their lives never addressing this stuff, even though it massively affects both them, and how they interact with the world around them. They still just flatly refuse to go anywhere near the issue. I say all this to say, just working on these things at all, and especially at such a young age, is incredibly commendable. And, you’re actually quite ahead in life to be looking at them now, so you should definitely take pride in your self awareness and your decisions, because it is not easy.

      Look up Daniel Goleman. It's exactly what he says we should be doing. Lessons in emotional intelligence, who am and where do I come from, family constellations, if we taught this, the world would literally be a better place for it. Society - especially after the disconnect of corona - needs a massive course correction.

    • @SleeplessVoron
      @SleeplessVoron Před 4 dny +1

      It wasn't considered a topic for a class because, scientifically speaking, a child learns the emotional regulation techniques by copying the methods their parent is using. For example, if a 6 yo gets hurt, they look at adults nearby, and copy their reaction to what happened. Thus, it is expected that all children will have emotional regulation and emotional processing learned from their parents.
      Unfortunately, not all parents know healthy ways of emotional processing, and tend to pass their trauma down the generations - and there's a lot of trauma passed down after ww1 and ww2, at least in the western cultures. Plus, it is more common for both parents to be at work most of the day, so they can't be around to address the child's emotional needs as before.
      Thus, the emotional regulations skills are in such a sorry state right now. It would be nice if they were taught in school to fix this gap, yeah.

    I remember the first time I just let my anxiety course through me instead of trying to explain it or suppress it. I placed a hand on my chest and allowed my heart to beat rapidly until it finally calmed down. Afterward it was a lot easier to take myself out of anxiety spirals before they even started. In my childhood I was shamed for expressing distress despite it being an appropriate response to trauma I was experiencing. Being able to process negative emotions is essential for my mental wellbeing.

    I never really thought about how important knowing how to process emotions was. Society just expects people to know how to process emotions since they come up so naturally, and we are never explicitly taught how to do this. But the tips you provided just felt so helpful. Especially the one about reflecting on your day; there are just so many things going on in life that we never acknowledge, and they can wear us down without us knowing if we don't address them. I will definitely use some of these tips. Thank you!

    • @jenifernadeau
      @jenifernadeau Před 11 dny

      Absolutely. Parents don't teach us because they were not taught, and without feelings, you cannot shift your vibrational frequency at create everything you've ever desired. We are energy frequency and vibration and emotions are energy and motion. When we are drop down into the body and pay more attention than being up in our thoughts which have been programmed throughout the years..... we connect back to our power that we had when we were children.❤ when we allow emotions to flow through our energy centers without blockage, we clear up any illness and disease that we created within ourselves. Repressed emotions and spiritual blockages are the cause of us and disease, if we don't love ourselves enough then we're not aware of what we're putting in our bodies and what chemicals and toxins are around us, but low vibrational people Etc, because we have created our own reality and brought to us everything that's ever shown up, every person every situation and every opportunity.. all of that carries a frequency. That's how powerful we are ;-)

      Same here. But in order for us to become healthy and stronger mentally we have to acknowledge the ugly emotions and actions that affect us . Like the girl in this video said, accumulating emotions eventually makes you break. So ironically in order for us to not be weak we have to actually acknowledge emotions and process them. Your family are assholes and they are the weak ones. I’m sorry you had to go through that.

  • @colbyboucher6391
    @colbyboucher6391 Před 19 dny +66

    FYI generally basic meditation practices ARE just sitting with your thoughts and emotions you're supposed to let whatever comes up come up. What's advised is to learn to pull your "mental spotlight" back a bit so rather than being trapped within those emotions you can... observe them from a distance. That does NOT mean not feeling them, but ultimately it's the reason for the concept of "not-self" or whatever, you are not your feelings because there isn't a you, not perceptually, just stuff that's happening and an observer. It's hard to explain but it DOES make this process easier.

      To me, meditation falls short, however, depending on which technique. I find it's vital to let the body speak and calm itself down in the process. Meditation can be strenuous with trying to let thoughts go. As Yung Pueblo also explains, thoughts have their origins in the body, and just letting things be brings you into being and feeling, not being your emotions.

  • @porcupethcrumpets

    Acknowledge and name the emotion (can take help from the emotions chart). Pause and notice if you're avoiding dealing with your feelings. Sit in silence with no distractions to hear your own thoughts. Reflect on your day.
    Receive positive validation. Don't justify your feelings. You will be triggered by trauma in the future but hopefully, the intensity reduces over time. Take steps to protect yourself from situations or people that keep triggering you
    Healthy coping mechanisms: mind is free but body is busy. Exercise, journal, craft, walk without distractions, cleaning, shower, sleep.

  • @Analia-pq2rj

    I'm glad that I already think these ways. I dont have any trauma. I just stress too much. But lately, I've been taking care of myself more and the effects are positive.
    I take some walks by myself, watch the landscape, people and nature then do some sport once a week(the walk alone is once per week. For sport, its 5 days a week. I swear, sport helps alot in many ways).
    Whenever I fail a test, (which happened in one of the 4 tests we had today(Im in 10th grade Im 15 years old rn)) I used to cry just after it. But now, I just think its in the past and think about how to compensate the bad grade. Because, what else can be done, the bad has already happened I cant go back.
    I also had to deal with "love" emotions that made my heart go up and down the cliff. I'm still a bit hurt but time is healing it. (And the punches I give to my punching bag).
    But smtg is still annoying me cause I only think about the same things for HOURS.😮‍💨 But "thanks" to my 7 hours of classes per day I sometimes have to think so much that I forget those annoying other thoughts.(Im in french system. I pray for those who are in asian systems like Korea, Japan and China. You guys are tought and I respect all the people who've done it that far in these systems)
    Its the 1st time I write such a long text. Srry bout that. I hope yall can get throught what you want to overcome. Im sure all of you have bigger problems thand I do. I wish I could share my luck with the most unlucky ones.
    I send good energies to you. And dont forget: nothing is impossible. I was once unable to do one correct push-up... now I can do 10!! 😂 small improvements should always be seen as a victory, u should think the same too! It might help🤷‍♀️
    Bye-bye☆

  • @marnieholdsworthgreen8449

    Wow wow wow!!! It’s almost as though you just rifled through my journal. A journal which only came into existence when I started to realise that I wasn’t processing my emotions properly. Processing is such a key and fundamental word and I, like you, came to the realisation through learning from my own experiences and reflecting. Can’t even tell you how much good this entire thing has done my mind and body and will continue to. My one piece of advice would be for everyone to remember that you’re not going to be brilliant at processing your emotions straight away. It isn’t a magic fix, but a journey. You’ll ‘back-slide’ and have times (that may be a day, it may be a month, or longer) you go through without processing your emotions properly. But that’s okay. It’s part of it. And once you identify it, it just goes to show that you’ve made progress. Each time, you’ll get better at identifying things and these emotions will not become less, or non-existent, but you will be better equipped to handle them each time.

    I've always had to conceal my emotions when I'm around people and smile like a jooly fellow. When i react or act different, people ask me why I'm being moody or I indirectly wasn't acting as strong or as happy as they expect me to be. And when i get angry it's so hard to let go of, i don't have anger issues but i just can't forget the anger when someone cuts me off from their life because i think deep down I'm hurt about.

    I focus too much on the fact that the people i care about and give my attention to, perceives me as optimistic, happy, hyper, funny individual at all times. When moments appear where i do start to go through stuff, i most of the time tend to repress or bottle my those emotions and find distractions because moments when i'm vulnerable because i recently went through something, the people close to me handle me with direct confrontation instead of comforting which can result in me feeling more than drained than ever. I can handle criticism and being confronted in general just except when i'm vulnerable.

      @jenifernadeau Před 11 dny

      When we can release having any concern with others think or feel or say about us, then you are truly free. Even illness or any ailment in the body can dissipate because of that. Because the physical self must match up with what's going on with our inner thoughts and feelings because we are energy frequency and vibration.
      Because you will never be able to control how others see you... because they can ONLY see you from the lens they are seeing THEMselves in at that particular moment, when you happen to be in their vicinity. It will always be projected on you, how they are feeling. We are not responsible for that nor should we manipulate their feelings by behaving in any particular ways. Otherwise that makes us the manipulator in the end. Leave others do whatever they want to feel think or say because that will reveal to you what's going on within them. If you keep your focus outside of yourself you are robbing yourself of your own life and creating your own sense of self from the inside out, in the healthy ways that your inner child wants to.❤

    i'm so glad this popped up on my recommended. i recently was struggling with processing anger and expressing it a non-destructive healthy way. I used to believe that i wasn't an angry person and that i could never be angry, but i think i was doing myself a disservice but not allowing myself to feel those heavy and hard emotions. once i started acknowledging that anger is within everyone and is a completely normal feeling to have, i feel like my perspective on life and how to manage my emotions changed for the better. it allowed me to be accepting of myself, and because of it, i've found ways to express my anger and cope with these heavy emotions in a way that works for me, isn't destructive, and doesn't push away people that mean the most to me. you can do it!

    To anyone who is passing by, I need some advice. Here is my story. I'm going through a lot of things recently. First off, I've always been social anxiety and a stutterer my whole life, and I didn't
    face it until recently. I started to show up for myself, like I'm trying to speak my mind and express my feelings more even if I might stutter on some words. I'm trying to face the fear of being judged. Secondly, I was hit by lazy eye, so I was going to the hospital to train my eye muscles and was looking for a job at the same time, and this week, I just got a job offer so I'm being worried if I can wear an eye patch to work because my doctor said I have to cover my bad eye for
    months until my eye muscles can get stronger. I don't know how to process these feelings. It's like something in my life got better and worse at the same time. I guess this is the fear of change and fear of being judged.

    Just wanted to say Thank you! For some reason, i just couldn't really "get" it when i read/heard other explanations of this process, but i understand a lot better now.
    Just want you to know that you're really helping people and we really appreciate it!

    This is exactly what I did to clear out an abandonment trigger... Instead of reacting we must stop and breathe .. The body's waiting for us to acknowledge it because it's held it in and kept score since we were children. People are so afraid of feeling the pain of the emotion because they remember it from childhood they don't realize that they are the one adult now in charge and not powerless and can redirect and clear it through the energy centers. And allow it to flow out and release the blockage, once we trust and surrender❤
    The best way to learn to pause is by starting meditative practices because you learn to observe your thoughts, and stop believing them or acting on them. The world has been deliberately created as a matrix to distract control and enslave us because we have reactive triggers, to what's on the news for example.... just because it's their doesn't mean we have to believe it or act on it. Breathing and responding from our own internal guidance is how you take your power back. But it stems from a lot of toxic and dysfunctional family patterns and cycles that are inner child needs to heal from, otherwise we repeat the patterns with our jobs our employers, our partners friends etcetera. We attract and create our own external world that is mimicking how we feel internally.
    Energy healing and sound healing is great for the body as well, because it's about unblocking energy centers, the chakras... we are energy frequency and vibrational beings first and foremost❤
    in meditation you receive the answers you seek.. because you have learned to detach from the external world and especially family members or others thoughts and feelings because they are not ours and they have nothing to do with us, and never did. They can only merely reflect externally what's going on within them at any given moment. Just as we do.

    I really like the tip about looking at the emotion chart. I often find it hard to articulate what emotions I’m feeling, so I’ll definitely have to try it and see if it helps me express what I’m feeling in a clearer manner to those I talk to😊
    Thank you!

    Step 1 is always the hardest for me. I'm much better at recognizing my emotions after months of retrospection, but at the time, I just get lost in the sauce.
    Thinking about the concept of the problem and the solution are not separate entities, so once you identify the problem, the solution becomes clear. Once I am able to recognize that I'm lost in the sauce, the solution (i.e. healthy coping mechanism) is not so difficult to grasp.
    Thanks for being a really great friend to us!💞

    I have been in therapy for a while, and I know and have been told that I am very introspective. When I tried to do EMDR (had to stop bc external factors) a year ago, I was told it was incredible that my system jumped right into it, as most people have dissociative walls to work through.
    Now, 4 weeks being out of my last therapist bc she's moving practices (w a new one already, she's great!), and just barely having gotten off of Imipramine, that was supposed to help nerve pain but that was actually just causing borderline delirium and severe dissociation for 3 whole weeks, I was having a hard time getting out of dissociation.
    It felt like no matter what I did, I wasn't able to let it go, let myself feel. The way you describe things people do to avoid feeling, and the way healthy coping mechanisms allow the mind to wander and be free and be heard, helped me realize that all this dissociation is being caused by my attempts to fix it! I have been doing all these random tasks, convincing myself I'm trying to fix my problems! While some of them really are helpful, like the flowcharts I made of my problems, solutions, and helpful activities I can do to better my life, which has accommodated my lack of ability to see the long term and therefor have motivation for certain things, and now I'm eating really healthy, most of the stuff I've done has been busy work to keep myself from hearing my mind or feeling. And everything I've wondered why I'm not doing it anymore like relaxing in silence, meditating, reading, drawing, etc, I was avoiding because it would've let my feelings happen. I didn't think to wonder if I was doing that, cause I actively recognized that I was dissociating and wanted to fix it, so I had no reason to wonder if I was *causing* it. However I have also quite literally tried to do mindfulness, and acknowledge feelings and feel them, but my mind wanders back to busy work, getting distracted, and dissociating...from my attempt to stop dissociating...
    Anyways 😅. Just, thank you so much for this video. I'm certain its helped so many people, and its certainly helped me. Hopefully I don't dissociate from the realizations its given me and forget all about this 😅

  • @norajasna2306

    Brilliant video and advice. Thank you so much for putting yourself and the knowledge out there!
    I just wrote down all the points in my mother language in bright colours. I will hang it up on my walls and see how that goes!
    I still feel shame around processing my emotions with others because I feel like I need it much much more often and deeper than many other people. I am so proud of my younger self tho having built loving relationships where I can do excactly that and feel safe.
    At the moment, I am home alone a lot with overwhelming tasks and hope to find some more grounding in the healthy coping mechanisms you listed. At the moment, I often go to youtube for hours because I'm too tired or bored of working through things on my own, which can leave me frustrated.
    I'll have to find soft loving approaches to cope that work for me. For example, just starting to move intuitively and stretch a little or getting up to get some water to drink.
    For anyone that read that, thank you, I hope we'll feel less alone and I hope you'll be blessed. ❤️

    I experienced ptsd as a young age, and started my therapy in my teens. I had ups and downs in my early 20s then recently I found a peace in my mind.
    Since I had my therapy young, luckily I embodied the way to process my emotions but never was able to explain exactly “how” to someone who needs help.
    I got to understand how I do it haha by your video! You are spreading so much love, thanks again❤️
