Thanks for this post Jeanie ! You described in words everything that I had tangled up inside me. I'll try to practice and put the wheel to use... from now on I confess that it will not be easy but I'll try.
Jeanie, this series is so good. Feeling responsible for others' feelings - um, yes, that sounds vaguely familiar! You're right, sitting with our feelings is so hard after years of numbing, ignoring, or dishonoring them, but the hard work is worth it to get to a place of emotional health. Lead on!

You're welcome Carla! I appreciate your vulnerability. Let me know how you get on using the wheel. I suggest you commit to practicing every day!
Thank you Jeanie! I am going to use this tool with the kids.
That is an excellent idea! Please keep me posted on how you get on, Rachel!

Thank you for sharing this Nancy! I'm so happy it's helping. I'd love to hear how you're using this information in your relationships...Be blessed!
Have you ever seen this emotion wheel? We use this at school sometimes. : )

I've seen many different ones but not as in-depth as this one. Thanks for pointing it out, Annie!
