Reclaiming Your Emotional Power - Dec 16

Did you know that no one actually has the power to make you feel anything? In today’s 5 Minutes In Nature, Liz explores the illusion that other people’s words or actions can control our emotions. It may seem like someone can slight you or make you feel sad, but the truth is far more empowering. The only thing that creates your feeling is the story or set of rules you’ve formed about how others should behave. You’re not upset because of what was said—you’re upset because their behavior doesn’t match the story you’ve created around it.

What a great reminder of such an important life truth. Very timely infact, as many of us head off to spend time with extended family over the pressure cooker of emotions that is the festive season.

So helpful. Helps me look at the dynamic between my sister and I differently. Thank you.

It’s true…and not easily my first thought in day to day living….

So timely for me Liz, as always. And it is the awareness of this that weakens it's seemingly powerful impact on us to a point of ease. 🙏🏼
