🔍 Find your feelings 🔎
|
When emotions run high, it’s easy to get swept up in racing thoughts or overwhelmed by everything at once. One powerful practice that can bring you back to center is simply pausing to notice what you’re feeling. Ask yourself: What am I feeling right now? And then, where am I feeling it? This gentle check-in helps your brain slow down, makes space to breathe, and gives you clarity about what’s really happening inside you. Sometimes you might not be able to name the exact emotion, and that’s okay. Instead, notice the physical sensations: Is your chest tight? Is your jaw clenched? Are your shoulders creeping up toward your ears? By noticing and naming what’s happening in your body, you give yourself a chance to shift from overwhelm into awareness. Try it the next time you feel caught up in the moment. You might be surprised by how much calmer and clearer you feel. Jose 💛

Hi friend, If you’ve ever found yourself shutting down or pulling away when things get uncomfortable in a relationship, you’re not alone. That instinct to retreat can be part of an avoidant attachment pattern, a learned way of protecting yourself when connection feels risky. But here’s an important reframe: Managing avoidant attachment doesn’t mean you’ll never pull away again. It’s not about perfection. It’s about awareness. The real growth happens in that small space between impulse and...
Hi friend, Have you ever scrolled through Instagram and seen a post that made you pause—something like, “Let yourself be selfish”—and thought, yes! …or maybe hmm, that doesn’t feel right to me? Here’s the thing: most posts you see online exist somewhere on a spectrum. For someone who’s spent their life putting everyone else first, that “be selfish” message might be exactly the medicine they need. But for someone who’s already great at setting boundaries, maybe what they really need to...
