Let’s create a culture that NORMALIZES the need to TAKE TIME to feel our feelings in REAL time…to move our e-MOTIONS, to circulate them through our bodies…to release them and live happily ever after:-) ENOUGH suppression already…We are WIRED to MOVE feeling THROUGH and OUT.
Although I’m not a doctor, I highly prescribe the practice of regularly tuning into feeling and moving your body as it is directing you to do so. ( to supplement whatever treatment your physician has provided, of course)
I believe if we normalized this ONE piece of societal/familial conditioning, we would greatly alleviate the suffering from anxiety and depression as well as experience greater vitality in our physical bodies.
IMAGINE feeling SAFE to move through feeling in school, at work, at home without expectation of suppressing, denying or avoiding challenging feeling. THIS is how we facilitate the passage of intense feelings. They need to MOVE when triggered. If we don’t provide means of release, they will stay lodged…stagnant in the body, wreaking all kinds of havoc.
If you want to practice a radical act of self care, try honoring your feelings through movement when they come up and see how much better you feel. I have been known to dance/move while prepping dinner, folding laundry, waiting on line, watching tv, taking a walk, even subtle stretches in the workplace can serve to move emotion.
It doesnt have to be dramatic(OR it may indeed want to express in a wild way…honor whatever comes up)…Find a bathroom, a bedroom…any space that feels safe…listen and move your feelings…shake those hips and shoulders…kick those legs, swing your arms, skip around…LISTEN and RESPOND.
Be part of the solution, give yourself permission to start moving your E-motion in safe places…this is how we create a culture that NORMALIZES the need to TAKE TIME to feel…as we EACH COMMIT to our own personal practice.
