How are you feeling today?
How are you feeling today? 💙
The process of identifying, labelling and expressing our feelings and emotions into words may sometimes be helpful, but it can also be very hard and confusing to find the right words and be able to articulate our feelings. We can practice together. Please feel free to share as much or as little as you like.
Some things that might be helpful but not necessary;
• Where in your body do you feel it?
• If you would pick a color to describe it, what would it be?
• What is the texture like? Is it smooth, sticky, fluffy?
@Sunthruclouds
This is a wonderful exercise!
I feel optimistic today. I would say in my mind and it is yellow and smooth. 💛
Hope I did it right :p Thanks for providing this exercise!💛
@innateJoy9602
Optimistic, smooth, yellow. That is nice. It makes me think of sunshine. ☀️
Yes you did, but really there's no wrong way. Thank you for participating. 🙏❤
@Sunthruclouds That's a great exercise that increases self awareness. Thank you very much for sharing it with us!

@calmDew1576
I'm glad you liked it. 🤗
I love your profile picture by the way.
@Sunthruclouds
It starts in my head and works its way down. Usually comes to rest from my throat to my chest
It's a swirl - a multitude of colors - a chaotic riot rainbow lol
Prickly - hard to swallow and hard to dislodge
@mytwistedsoul
That was such a vivid description, great work 💜
What is the feeling, if you don't mind me asking?
@Sunthruclouds fear
I'm feeling bored and the color is blank white. The texture is nonexistant.
@SweetPea321
Hmm, blank white, interesting. 🤍
Feeling as if only doom is in my future. I feel it in my upper body - my shoulders are slumped and my head hangs down, looking at the ground at my feet. I suppose it would colored dark purple.
@gbrenna
That sounds heavy. ❤
What would you say the emotion/feeling is? Something that came to my mind reading your description was hopelessness; despair, also maybe sadness?
@Sunthruclouds despair describes it exactly I think. Knowing that nothing will change for the better and I will remain in the dark.
@gbrenna
Must be so hard to feel that there is no hope and nothing will change for the better.
I am truly sorry that you are going through that. I hope for you that something changes. ❤
Feeling emotionally frustrated, in emotional distress.
I think the colour dark purple describes it best and a rough spiky texture, almost like sea urchin spines.
@courageousNectarine1602
Sea urchin spines, ouch.
Yeah your description of emotional distress is very on point. Although it's different for everyone I can relate to what you are saying. Thank you for sharing.
@Sunthruclouds I feel that I'm a loser. I feel it in my chest and eyes. If it was a color it would be black. If you could feel it, it would be cold and jaggedy.
@WhatsThePoint1987
Sounds like self-hatred or maybe shame? ❤
2022, the day before halloween.
today... i feel empty
white fluffy blankets wrapped around me in this chilly weather.
the warm laptop proceeded to run its whirring sound, muffled on my lap.
studying seemed too much,
but doing nothing would start a rush of guilt.
i let my mind run,
to wherever it wants.
and i feel,
blank.

Tired. Like utterly, soul weary.
Feeling depressed and mentally disturbed
