Emotions Let me have it,
Dear one.
Get it all out with me.
Whatever is bothering you,
Frustrating you,
Bringing you down.
You can be all of you with me.
Maybe you were taught as a child to put on a happy face.
That is a lesson to unlearn.
Safely expressing your gamut of emotions is the healthy way forward.
Far healthier than burying your feelings behind some facade.
Tell me everything.
And now notice the space you have to breathe.
A bit deeper,
A lot deeper.
Notice the return of your confidence.
Notice a peacefulness,
A calm,
A sense of comfort.
Being real with your feelings serves you well.
You and all are wise to ask,
What are these feelings here to teach me?
What is my anger really about?
What is underneath my sadness?
What is the gift of all this?
Pause and ask such questions.
And then listen to the answers.
They are nuggets of gold.
What do your emotions want you to know?
