211. Are You Analysing Your Emotions Instead of Feeling Them?

In this podcast episode, Sarah Liz King explores the concept of intellectualising emotions and the importance of feeling and acknowledging them instead. She uses the analogy of waves on a beach to illustrate how people often analyse emotions from a distance instead of immersing themselves in the experience. Sarah discusses signs of intellectualising emotions, such as overemphasis on logic and reasoning, and offers five steps to shift away from this habit. She also shares her personal experience and emphasises the benefits of connecting with and expressing emotions for self-awareness and recovery. Ultimately, Sarah encourages listeners to embrace their emotions and cultivate self-compassion. ❤️ Join my newsletter list for weekly motivation and inspiration and you'll also receive a FREE copy of my eBook "Body Confidence (for life!) guide" ❤️ Work with me and my team to improve your relationship with food and exercise by heading to www.sarahlizking.com and filling out the contact form. ❤️ Connect with me on social media by following me on Instagram, Tiktok or Youtube
