Did you know emotions only last about 90 seconds?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Have you ever felt stuck in an emotion?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We all have.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Sometimes for hours, sometimes for days, or even years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The truth is, research shows us that emotions are actually experienced for 90 seconds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We can all learn how to watch our emotions come and go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Here is a practice you can use to separate yourself from your emotions and allow yourself to be free from cycles of getting stuck in emotions:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n 1.) Move Your Body: <\/strong>moving your body can help you work through difficult emotions. Go for a walk, dance, or shake. Notice how the emotional energy in your body changes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 2.) Stop telling a story: <\/strong>think about it, how often have you kept telling a story about what happened. Maybe you call your friend and tell them the story about what happened with your ex over + over. Maybe you continue to vent with your sister about your mom. The more you re-live an emotionally stressing experience, the more your body does too. Keep this in mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 3.) Reframe: <\/strong>the way we talk about emotions, has a lot to do with how we feel. Instead of saying \u201cI am angry\u201d or \u201cI am sad\u201d start saying: \u201cA part of me feelings sad right now.\u201d Or \u201cRight now, I\u2019m feeling a lot of anger.\u201d All emotions are healthy, and it\u2019s important to remember we aren\u2019t our emotions, we experience our emotions.<\/em> Did you know emotions only last about 90 seconds?
