In this solo episode
of Caitlin's Couch, I share the myth that most of us believe that
feelings aren’t important.
Have you ever found yourself saying phrases like “there’s no point in being angry or sad about xyz”? I’m here to tell you that feelings don’t work like that. There are many important reasons that we need to feel our feelings in order to live a truly fulfilling life.
There is a reason why a baby cries when they’re hungry, or throws a tantrum when they’re unhappy. It’s how a baby shows their feelings and as we grow up, we are generally taught to suppress our feelings. We are not taught how to regulate our emotions. We are not taught that our emotions are our guide.
This episode comes with some powerful journaling prompts.
