Everything in my head feels like a five-alarm fire. How do I take my emotional emergencies and right-size my thoughts and emotions so they match the situation I’m actually in. I tend to treat discomfort like it’s urgent, permanent, and catastrophic. Not every uncomfortable feeling requires an immediate action, and sometimes no response at all is the wisest.I’ve always had big emotions, but big feelings don’t require big actions. The majority of my time is spent emotionally time-traveling. I’m either reliving the past or panicking about the future. If I can sit with discomfort long enough to see where it took root, I can choose a response that matches the size of the situation, and build new habits of self-awareness and emotional regulation. I’m not a victim of my emotions.Listen and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts and YouTube. Rather listen on Apple Podcasts? https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/recovery-daily-podcast/id1693924779 Visit my Etsy shop, and join my creative journey at Recovery Upcycling. https://www.etsy.com/shop/RecoveryUpcycling #EmotionalRegulation #MentalHealthAwareness #EmotionalWellness #MindfulnessPractice #selfawareness
