Emotional freedom is about giving ourselves permission to feel all our emotions in a healthy way, even the hard ones. While this can be challenging for lots of reasons, when we have the courage to authentically feel our emotions, it opens up so much capacity for us and deepens our ability to meaningfully connect with others. On this episode, I talk about some of what makes it difficult for us to feel certain feelings and some common misunderstandings we have about “positive” and “negative” emotions. I then share two powerful techniques that can help us access and transform our emotions in an empowering way.
