Have you ever wondered why is it so difficult to deal with emotional intensity?
And why everything seems so confusing no matter what kind of emotions you are dealing with?
Why decisions are so hard to make when emotional intensity kicks in?
And why we’re generally pretty good at getting a clear picture of what’s going on in somebody else’s story, but we are fairly poor guessers when it comes to our own story?
Dealing with and talking about our emotions is like navigating through the biggest and darkest unknown.
But why is that so?
We’re going to lean into this topic in this month’s episode of The Feminine #Uncut Podcast.
How can we deal with difficult emotions and how do we learn to integrate emotional intensity in a healthy feminine way? — that’s the big question.
Well, it all starts with accepting that we have emotions; both positive and negative. Stop fighting them.
Then, we should stop judging the negative emotions and demystify the positive ones.
Have you ever noticed how often you freeze in front of a positive emotion? The most common emotion that freezes us down is love.
Yes, love.
Even if the first impression is that most of us get stuck or back down when we face a negative emotion, funnily enough, we do exactly the same when we are snapped by a positive one.
Because what muddies the waters is not the emotion per se, but its intensity and novelty
Finally, the third step comes with ceasing to expect magical formulas or potions that might help us get unstuck.
Practice, practice, practice — that’s the holy grail of emotional maturity.
The moment you understand that it’s okay to have all sorts of emotions and that emotions can actually give you a powerful insight into your personal narrative, you will be able to swap anxiety and fear for curiosity.
This puts you in the driver’s seat, and supports you to transform the “I am afraid of …” into “I really want to discover…”
This will bring the long craved fluidity into your life.
So, the next time you get confused or feel overwhelmed by any kind of emotional intensity, here’s what you should be asking yourself:
What’s going on?
What emotion I’m experiencing right now?
What’s the message that it brings?
What’s the opportunity or disfunction that this emotion is showing me?
What action am I actually called into?
These simple questions will empower your inner observer to guide you through the truth that your emotion is hiding.
Now, listen to the whole episode and next, if you want to learn more about the feminine way of mastering emotions, head over here.
