Dare to fail your way to success - Moon Arica💦Emotions block you
Do you ever feel like your emotions are weighing you down physically?
Do you experience burst of creativity?
You start to write and suddenly inspiration strikes and you get into it.
Words and sentences just rush from your brain into the computer.
Some call this the flow state.
Maybe you’ve triggered something in your subconscious.
Writing may be releasing them.
💦 Writing connects your mind and body
We often overlook how our emotional state affects our body.
Stress, anxiety, and unresolved emotions show up as tension, fatigue, and even illness.
They are not just in your head, your body feels it too.
Writing is a powerful tool for processing that and can play a crucial role in your overall well-being.
It can act as a bridge between your mind and body, helping you release pent-up emotions and find physical relief.
Use writing to bring those thoughts and feelings to the surface to unload what’s negative.
💦Physical pain is linked to mental blockage
When you ignore stress, it shows up in your body, maybe you’re losing sleep, losing temper or losing battles, all because you didn’t release your emotions properly.
Start by understanding physical sensations.
Notice what feelings appears when you’re upset or anxious.
Notice how quick you are to react to other people’s words or actions.
Notice the words and emotions you are transmitting to yourself and others.
Writing allows you to tune into those signals.
It helps you connect the dots between how you feel emotionally and how your body is responding.
Writing about emotions can have a measurable impact on both mental and physical well-being.
When you write, you’re also improving your health.
