@ningcollective: Intellectualising our feelings can feel like healing—but it’s often just avoiding. When we analyse instead of feel, we might say: "This is probably a trauma response.” "It’s because of my attachment style.” It sounds self-aware. But often, it’s self-protection. 💭 We dissect to avoid discomfort 💭 We stay in the head, not the heart 💭 We explain our pain so we don’t have to experience it Real emotional processing isn’t always articulate. It’s messy. Bodily. Wordless. You don’t need to solve a feeling to let it move through you. Try: 🌀 Sitting with the feeling—not the story 🌀 Letting conversations end in silence 🌀 Giving your body permission to release Awareness is powerful—but it’s not the same as healing. You’re allowed to feel, even if you don’t fully understand why. #intellectualising #intellectualisingemotions #youreallowedtofeel #emotions #emotionalprocessing
