Our gut instincts can tell us a lot about our emotions and what’s going on, you know?
It’s like, our stomachs are always in the know.
You know how sometimes we have feelings we wanna express, but we end up keeping them all bottled up inside? It’s like our bellies become the storage space for all those unexpressed emotions. Instead of sharing how we really feel with others or even admitting it to ourselves, we just push those feelings deep down. They stay there, taking up space until we’re finally ready to let them out.
Bottling up our feelings might seem like the easy way out, but it’s not healthy for our emotions or our bodies. I’ve got a pretty cool tip to help you get in touch with your emotions and let them go. It involves focusing on your stomach area.
First, take a few deep breaths and meditate for a bit. This will help you relax and clear your mind. Then, place your right hand on your stomach and say to yourself, “Please show me my real feelings.” Repeat this three times.
Listen to your body for any responses. How does your stomach feel? Is it warm and relaxed, or do you feel any tightness or knots? These physical reactions can tell you a lot about your emotions.
You can do this exercise as often as you want. The more you do it, the deeper you’ll connect with your body and your feelings. If you want, you can even write down any insights or answers that come to you.
Remember, your body doesn’t lie. It can tell you a lot about what’s going on inside. So trust your gut and let your emotions flow!
Letting go of all those pent-up feelings inside us can keep us healthy and allow us to live more authentic and expressive lives. If we hold on to too much emotional energy, it can build up and eventually explode in a way that’s not good for us. One way to let go of this pressure is to do an exercise that combines movement and sound.
The more grunting and groaning you do, the more feelings you’re likely to let loose. Letting go of your feelings from your gut doesn’t have to be painful and hard; it can be totally easy. Don’t judge whatever comes up for you. We often hide our feelings deep down when we’re ashamed of them or not ready to share them.
Hey you! It’s okay to have feelings, no matter what they are. You can’t control them, but you can help yourself by recognizing and accepting them. This will help you let go and move on.
Peace ♥ Harmony, Cheryl
