@drtazmd: PUTTING FEELINGS INTO WORDS REDUCES DISTRESS What are you feeling right now? Not what are you doing, what are you thinking, or what needs to get done. What emotion are you actually experiencing? Dr. Judith Joseph explains a psychological technique called affect labeling, which means identifying an emotion and putting it into words. Research suggests that naming a feeling may reduce emotional reactivity and help regulate distress. Saying “I feel anxious,” “I feel disappointed,” or “I feel overwhelmed” can replace some of the uncertainty with clarity and validation. Naming an emotion may not solve the underlying problem, but it can give you a clearer starting point for understanding what you need next. Can you name the feeling you are experiencing today? 🎙 Clip from Podcast: hol+ by Dr. Taz MD 🎧 Listen now on ALL podcast platforms 📺 Link 👇 holplus.co/podcast #DrTaz #DrJudithJoseph #AffectLabeling #MentalHealth #EmotionalHealth #AnxietyRelief #EmotionalAwareness #SelfAwareness #Psychology #PodcastClips
