@thegratitudemind: Sometimes we aren’t afraid of the feeling itself. We’re afraid it will never end. So we overthink it, distract ourselves, stay busy or do anything we can to make it disappear. But when we repeatedly treat an emotion like something we must escape, we can accidentally teach our brain that the feeling itself is dangerous. Not every difficult emotion needs to be fixed. Sometimes it needs to be felt without being feared. #mindsetshift #emotionalhealing
