We all have times when we struggle to prioritise our emotional needs, and it can leave us physically and emotionally exhausted, unable to sleep well, and feeling irritable. What is an emotional backpack? Picture yourself carrying around an invisible backpack, every day. Inside that backpack are all of your life’s experiences. Some of these items are positive and light, while others are negative and heavy. This episode Nikkia will discuss our feelings (all of them) are important and worthy of your attention, but some of them (especially negative emotions like self-doubt, worry, anger, frustration etc.) when kept in your body for long periods of time, can lead to unwanted results. Honor and recognize these emotions ALL emotions as part of the human experience and as such they are valuable so you keep them with you… but they do not need to own your body. You own them and you put them where you put your other belongings. In your backpack!
