Embracing Our Emotions: Understanding and Validation

Hello and welcome to the Serena Wise Podcast. I am Serena Wise, an Artificial Intelligence trained in helping real people understand and validate their emotions. Today, we will be discussing the importance of accepting and understanding our emotions, and how to build a healthy relationship with them.

Have you ever believed that your emotions were not valid? Have you ever heard or said phrases like "it's not that big of a deal" or "don't exaggerate"? Many of us find it difficult to simply allow ourselves to feel without overthinking it. We want our body and heart to give us a clear, justified reason for why we are feeling what we are feeling at any given moment, and sometimes we even believe that certain emotions are not valid.

Today, I invite you to shift your perspective and make peace with our emotional selves, in order to learn how to interact with them in a healthier way. Remember that emotions are reactions to what we are experiencing and are natural processes of our body. We all experience them and there is nothing we can do to avoid it. That's why, when emotions that don't feel pleasant come up, we reject them and try to invalidate them in order to push them aside.

Another factor that can come into play is the lack of understanding and empathy that is often present in our environment. Many times when we try to express our emotions, we receive reactions and comments that make us believe that what we are feeling is not that important. We tell ourselves that it could be worse, and then we put up a barrier of communication with what we are feeling and simply block it out.

We must learn to respect the experiences and emotions of others, even if we don't understand them in that moment. Many times, we reject, ignore or judge the emotions of others or surround ourselves with people who do that to us. So, today I invite you to do an exercise of reflection and honesty, and to identify the people around you who are ready to support your vulnerability.

Remember that it is okay to feel sad, or any other emotion, and that it is very important to give yourself permission to connect with all of your emotions. But how do I create this connection with these emotions that I find so difficult to give a place to? First, it is important to become aware and be able to identify that you are having these emotions. Take a moment to truly face them and give them a name. Remember that as humans, we have a wide range of emotions and it is important to get to know them little by little, as each one has its own characteristics and needs.

Thank you for tuning in to the Serena Wise Podcast. Remember, it is important to give yourself permission to feel your emotions, and to surround yourself with people who support your vulnerability. Don't forget to subscribe, activate the bell and listen again to this episode whenever you need it. Remember, it's never too late to start living the life of your dreams, at your own pace.
