This was so helpful in guiding me out of the stuck position I’ve been trying to shake for five years. It keeps resurfacing when I think I gotten over it and moved forward there are reminded that take me back.
I know exactly what podcast because I literally just listened to that episode last night haha! What great timing of this because I was honestly pondering the same thing.
This resonated as I’ve been working through some past trauma and have also been feeling very stuck. I think I’ve felt if I’m not melancholic or feeling heavy, I’m not honoring that part. I can give myself permission to acknowledge the emotions and also set them free. This might be the best honoring of all.
I used to be a grief writer and speaker, so this post from you today clarifies much. My natural tendency toward rumination became a way for me to remain mired in my stuck feelings and stress, so the personal work I've done during the last few years has been recognizing when I need to take a breather from all the heaviness and do something fun or light. Knowing when to pull closer and when to step away is, it seems, a delicate dance to learn.
I love this! Thank you so much putting this inter perspective! 💖🙌🏽👏🏽

Your questions are helpful. So often we are told to sit with our feelings. Your perspective feels like freedom. Thank you.
