How much tension do you feel in your body? And where do you feel it?
When it comes to processing your emotions, aka emotional regulation, we're talking about releasing tension and freeing the energy that is stored in your body and how this affects your mind.
Emotional regulation is a skill you want to develop so you can make values-based decisions...
...in other words, so you can respond instead of react.
In part one of this four part series, I talked about notice and name, the ability to be able to identify the specific feeling or feelings that you are experiencing.
In part two, I talked about allowing time and space, and what it really means to sit with your emotions.
In this episode, part three, we're going to be talking about releasing tension in your body.
This is about what it takes to deal with intense emotions so that you can be calm and clear when you choose the right next step.
