Pesky feelings aren't so disruptive after I feed them a little. Then they get tired and go to sleep.

I've found that, depending on the issue and its urgency, a little time physically and mentally away -- like a short drive running an errand -- is a good reset for me. I then come back mentally and emotionally distanced from whatever the issue is, and in a better space to handle it.

I agree. Stepping away for a bit really helps.

Thanks, Rhonda,

That is exactly what my Capricorn does, and I'd been taking it personally, but hearing you saying it, confirms it's not personal to me!

Thanks for sharing. Ariele

Learning a similar pattern! Though I have come to realise that it seems widely acceptable to whinge and whine and complain. When did this become normal!?! A topic I’d like to write about myself. Because when we don’t name the feelings and feel them, they become trapped in our bodies. Xx

So true and the more trapped they become, the more difficult it is to let them go.

Ooofff, yes 😅 as I’m finding with my own🫠
