When everything flows, it's easy to be the person we want to be.

But sometimes, a thought or feeling takes over. You want to speak kindly, but the words slip away, and you find yourself acting against what you truly want.
What if we could pause and choose differently?

#EmotionSurfing Day 4
💙
Emotion Wave Exercise (5–10 min): Recall a mildly uncomfortable or neutral situation (SUDS 3–4). Allow the emotion to rise and fall naturally.
Notice the Peak: Observe how the emotion develops. Just let it be. Notice how it eventually subsides or changes.

We all have different “emotional skin.” Some feel emotions intensely and take longer to return to baseline. This can be dealt with #TIPP skills, e.g. by dunking your face in a bowl of ice water, and mindfulness acceptance—learning to surf the emotion instead of drowning. #MentalHealth #TherapySky

Toxic positivity is an invalidation of self and others and maintains inner experiental avoidance of painful feelings

Had to share this. What kind of therapist are you?
I’d love to the be kind and caring one, but I think I might belong at the top of the pyramid...

Is it overwhelming?
When the world is on fire and more dystopian by the minute, managing your inner experience becomes more important than ever. #Mindfulness helps regulate your internal world—but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t work to change the world around us. #TherapySky #MentalHealth

Tried #Mindfulness and it didn’t work?
Many think it’s about relaxation, but it’s actually something else -a powerful mental skill. It helps you step back from your inner experience. The anxious mind focuses on threats. MF helps expand perspective. Like any skill, it takes practice.

Life happens in context
Instead of reacting automatically build #psychologicalflexibility
Practice #mindfulness to stay present, even when things feel overwhelming.
Learn to sit with uncomfortable emotions without pushing them away
Focus on small actions that align with your #values

Isolation causes deep psychological pain. Acknowledging loneliness in a society that values social connection takes courage. Loneliness doesn’t define you, but it can be part of your story. Have you experienced the pain of feeling left out?

Being #NeverGoodEnough feels deep and personal. But what if this feeling is shaped by evolution? According to evolutionary psychology, the need to belong and be accepted by a group has been essential for human survival. We can't survive without a tribe. That's why #socialcomparison hurts so much.

The feeling of inadequacy often stems from early childhood, when we begin to learn about ourselves in relation to the world. Experiences of rejection or criticism can lead us to believe we are not #GoodEnough. These form core beliefs that continue to influence us even as adults. #SelfCompassion

Many of us carry a sense of inadequacy within us—a feeling of not being good enough. We may struggle with the belief that we don’t deserve love or respect. How can we strengthen self-worth and approach feelings of worthlessness constructively?
