Give yourself permission to feel all emotions: Allowing yourself to feel negative emotions can help process and move on from them, leading to greater emotional resilience and overall well-being
It's important to give yourself permission to feel all emotions, not just the positive ones. According to Kate Cocker from Volley FM's "Everyday Positivity," trying to be happy all the time can actually hinder us from processing and moving on from negative emotions. Anxiety can build up when we avoid feeling emotions like disappointment, anger, or grief. By allowing ourselves to feel these emotions, they can pass more quickly, and we can then focus on moving forward. So, instead of trying to suppress negative emotions, let them come and go, and give yourself the space to process them. This approach can lead to greater emotional resilience and overall well-being. Remember, it's okay to feel sad, angry, or disappointed, and these emotions are a natural part of the human experience. So, take a deep breath, allow yourself to feel, and let it pass.
