Pushing Away Emotions

Choosing not to experience pain, anger, or other intense feelings could cause those feelings to become buried deep into your physical body.

Throughout our lives, we may experience emotions that disturb or distress us. Often, our first reaction is to push our feelings away. We may say, “I don’t want to think about that right now, I’ll think about it later” and we bury our emotions, deny the validity of our feelings, or distract ourselves with other concerns. But the diverse emotions you experience are neither good nor bad — they are simply a part of being human. Choosing not to experience pain, anger, or other intense feelings could cause those feelings to become buried deep into your physical body. There, they may linger unresolved and unable to emerge, even as they affect the way you experience the world. Allowing yourself to experience all of your emotions rather than push the more painful ones away can help you come to terms with your feelings so you can experience them and then move on.

It is possible to bring forth the old feelings you have pushed aside and experience them in a safe and enriching way. It may sound silly to set aside time to feel your old wounds that you haven’t dealt with, but this can be a very beneficial healing experience. Find a safe place and pick a time when you can be alone. Make sure that you feel secure and comfortable in your surroundings. Bring to mind the circumstances that originally triggered the emotions you’ve been pushing away. You may need to revisit these circumstances by reading relevant entries in your journal or using visualization to relive your past. Once you have triggered your long-denied emotions, let yourself feel your feelings, and try not to judge your reactions. Cry or sound your emotions if you need to, and don’t block the flow of your feelings. Allow any thoughts that are connected to your emotions to surface. As you release the feelings you have pushed inside of you, you will find yourself healing from the experience associated with these emotions.

When you deal with your feelings directly, they can move through you rather than staying stopped up in your body as emotional blocks that can sometimes turn into disease. Acknowledging your emotions, instead of pushing them away, allows you to stay emotionally healthy and in touch with your feelings. Amen! ✨✨

@shoelady60,

Good afternoon Lady in the ‘burgh. 😘✨🌹How are things today? Tell me you are warm.

OZ is alright I am multi-tasking as usual. Have you heard from your sister? I do hope she
is having the time of her life on her Cruise. 😎✨🌹

If hubby is out golfing enjoy this time. I am blowing a kiss at Jake’s Canvas. 😘✨
Lady I miss him too.

I love doing this for you because you are so funny. I would love to be at a party with you
and your family I am sure all would have a good time. 😘😎

@taci,

Good morning in S. Cali and may this day find you doing well. ✨

Taci what did you think of the Thing About Pam? Pam Hupp is also being charged
with the death of her mother. All this was on our local news years ago. I thought
Renee did an excellent job portraying Pam. Holy smokes that woman would scare
the daylights out of me the real Pam.

Hey here is to Happy Trails To You. 😘🎶🎶I may go bike riding later today.

Taci please be careful and watch out for the snakes do you remember the year we
found a Nest of Snakes in our backyard? I don’t like to do yardwork without hubby around. 😜

@oodiebom,
