Learning to feel, process, and release what’s within so you can rise lighter and stronger
For years, many of us were taught to keep our emotions in check. We heard phrases like “Don’t cry,” “Be strong,” or “Shake it off.” We learned that showing emotions was a weakness, so we learned to bury our feelings.
But I’ve learned that when we suppress our emotions, we can silence our own power.
When I learned to embrace my emotions, something shifts. I began to give myself the space to feel it, to process it and to eventually release it.
I discovered that this wasn’t a weakness, it was actually courage. And that courage led me to freedom.
Please know that it might seem easier to keep things bottled up, but our unacknowledged emotions won’t ever disappear. They resurface in unexpected ways such as having lingering stress no matter how much rest we get, a disconnection in relationships because our walls replace honesty and there can be moments of anger and sadness that we feel that will come out of no where.
If you don’t address it, it will eventually catch up to you and negatively affect you.
True emotional freedom doesn’t mean you’ll never feel pain again, but it does mean emotions will no longer control you.
Your emotional freedom will feel like being able to allow yourself to cry without an apology, no longer having shame when you name your emotions and letting go of what no longer serves you. You’ll begin to feel like you’re living lighter and you’ll start to feel the inner feelings of joy, clarity and strength.
Your emotions aren’t here to make you feel trapped. They’re messengers that are important and they’re here to guide you.
Today, I invite you to pause. Place your hand on your heart and take a deep breath. Ask yourself:
“What am I feeling right now, and what is it here to teach me?”
You don’t need to run from the answer, nor do you need to suppress it. Because when you embrace your emotions, you reclaim your power. And that’s where true emotional freedom begins.
