NOTE

Understanding the Process of Emotion Containment and Release

Individuals often stop feeling their emotions when faced with overwhelming pain or social rejection, leading to emotional containment. This process is physically uncomfortable, as it requires the body to hold emotions in a constrained manner. There exists a natural progression toward re-engaging with emotions, starting from learning to feel them again, to expressing them, and eventually achieving emotional fluidity. This process is crucial for personal development and can be facilitated through coaching. Stuck emotions arise when individuals feel emotions that are too intense, causing them to compartmentalize rather than express those feelings. This denial leads to feelings of overwhelm. However, by learning to slow down and either integrate or express these emotions, individuals can quickly regain clarity and direction, thus resolving feelings of chaos and confusion.
