As a caregiver or care partner, you deal with a lot of tough emotions like sadness, resentment, and guilt. In this episode, I explore the positive impact of embracing and processing these difficult feelings. Our natural tendency is to want to avoid or numb ourselves to these types of feelings when they arise. I'm mean, let's face it, who want to feel guilt? But, suppressing emotions can lead to hidden costs (which I talk about in Episode 11), but there are also many great benefits to allowing yourself to feel and process them.
I’ll explain what it means to be "in" your emotion and how that differs from the conscious and deliberate skill of allowing your emotions.
I’ll also teach you my method for processing emotions, which involves noticing, naming, acknowledging, and allowing them. By allowing your emotions, you don’t act them out; instead, you observe yourself experiencing them.
There are four major benefits to learning and practicing this skill. I’ll discuss each one and how it helps you become more resilient not just in caregiving, but also in life!
