Feel It

By: Gabriela Yareliz

“Learn to welcome all of the emotions.” Dr. Edie Wadsworth

I recently heard Dr. Wadsworth say we need to increase our capacity to feel. When we shut down negative emotions, we not only shut down the sad but also the joyful. Increasing our capacity means we feel it all, but it allows us to feel joy.

Increasing our capacity also means taking up space. It means we don’t live small.

“We keep ourselves so small because we don’t want to fail; we don’t want to be uncomfortable; we don’t want to be rejected; we don’t want to be disappointed.” Dr. Edie Wadsworth

Live amplified— go big or go home. Feel it all. Live BIG.
