2020 is about to close. We are all ready to say good bye and in new hope for the coming year.
As I reflect back on the 2020, the one thing that comes to mind is how we all have had an escalation of emotion. For sure, this is one year we’ll never forget.
For me, this year was especially heightened with emotion. My youngest child who has Down Syndrome graduated from high school. With that milestone, new opportunities presented themselves, and despite the emotion we were experiencing collectively we made it to the end of 2020. Today Pat and I sat down for some lunch and talked about all the things we were grateful for in 2020 and paused for those who experienced hardship and loss during the year.
Collectively, we all lacked a sense of ease and calm. Our emotions were heighten, our lifestyles changed and as 2021 moves in there is still so much uncertainty.
With that said, I would like to give you some tips for you to nurture yourself as the new year rolls in.
So many of us struggle because we don’t acknowledge our feelings. This is clearly a skill we all need to learn so we can take better care of our selves and be emotionally happier and healthier.
I want you all to know that ease and calm are Super Powers we all have and we can access them. When you are in a state of ease and calm you can handle whatever is presented to you much better.
There are 5 essential steps to accessing this Super Power when you are feeling out of calm zone.
- Being able to label how you are feeling.
- Now that the feeling is identified, you must own that feeling.
- Own the experience by saying, I’m choosing to experience______________.
- Welcome the feeling.
- How does it feel in your physical body?
Sitting quietly with the feeling will help you move through it quicker than if you were to resist the emotion.
Happy New Year Everyone! Remember good things are coming…
