Moving on from "I'm fine" or "I'm too busy to feel", "you're just so sensitive" or "don't be so emotional". On how to rewrite our emotional scripts, shift generational patterns and be happy being sad.
I cry watching Grey’s Anatomy. Even during reruns. I sometimes cry watching cooking competitions. Crying I don’t have a problem with. What took me by surprise later in life was that I had every right to be angry sometimes and that I was able to feel it. Too long too good girl, anger was not acceptable.
Anger is so, so hard when we've been conditioned that it's bad to express it. I've struggled with the same thing and I have to literally reframe anger as something that's ok for me. Also I have cried at bake off!
I love this
Thanks Claire ☺️
