Stop Over-drinking and Start Living, Episode 126, Bypassing Emotions

I am digging in this week on what it means to bypass your feelings.

What happens when you don't allow yourself to be sad [insert any emotion]?

When you think you 'shouldn't' be sad.. and don't acknowledge that you ARE sad you are bypassing how you feel.

This causes a disconnect and you become out of alignment with what is happening inside of you and who you are.

And you notice that disconnect subtly.. you might think 'what is wrong with me?' or 'Why aren't I happy..?' 'Or what am I supposed to be doing..'

You might notice more buffering like over-drinking or overeating and avoiding doing things that you actually want to be doing.

Acknowledging that you ARE experiencing an emotion is exactly what we should be doing.

There is nothing wrong with you for having feelings. All humans have them, we just aren't taught about them and what to do with them when they come up.

Honoring yourself and naming and accepting the feelings you have is the way to preventing more problems like over-drinking or overeating down the line.

Your feelings have messages to tell you if you slow down enough and listen.

Tune in and learn how to stop bypassing your own emotional experiences so you can move through them and get to the other side of feeling better.
