An exercise for perceiving and expressing current feelings
This exercise helps you to feel and understand your feelings better again.
1. sit down in a quiet place and close your eyes.
2. take a few minutes to feel into your body. What are you feeling right now? Is there a warmth, a pressure or perhaps a tingling sensation?
3. think about which feeling matches these physical sensations. Do you feel joy, fear, sadness or anger?
4. simply notice the feeling without judging it. It’s okay to feel the way you feel right now. If you want, you can express the feeling in some way: You can paint it, make music, describe it. What color is the feeling? If it were an animal, what would it be?
5. breathe in and out deeply and slowly let go of the feeling. You can imagine how you release it with your breath.
This exercise helps you to become more aware of your feelings step by step and to accept them.
Would you also like to talk openly with your partner about your wishes and needs and work on your relationship together?
