This daily message is a powerful reminder about emotional regulation. We often react to whats happening around us and it feels like loosing control. There is another option. To respond to it. Knowing who you are, what you stand for and what your values are make it possible for you to respond to anything from a centered state.

Hey love!

Today I want to talk to you about emotional regulation because what I've noticed is that what we usually do when something is happening outside of us then we start to react to it.

So we we're driven by whatever happens around us and this is the moment where we think that we start to lose control and it's also the moment where we give our power away to to the outside world and I have learned through many many lessons that we are actually able to to not react to what's happening but to respond to it and that is still our power what we respond to anything that is happening outside of us and the more secure we feel within ourselves the more I know who I am the more I know what my values are what I stand for in life the more I know exactly if something happening around me is aligning with who I am or not and when something is happening like I don't know like just anything that would be super annoying in your daily life and instead of just reacting to it with anger sadness or I don't know with shame then why don't we just take a moment and take one breathe one breath and remember the values that we that we stand for freedom love family whatever it is for you and fill our cup ourselves up with this emotion and center ourselves and then we can respond from there on so what happens is that we keep the control of our life it's like 90% that's happening in our our lives is it's just circumstances but you can do something about it and you can react like respond accordingly to it responding to these situations is also not about suppressing emotions suppressing anger or sadness but to bring it out in a clear and controlled way so we're not just screaming and yelling at someone and feel even more negative about it afterwards but let our anger out in a controlled manner to be sad but from the value you're standing from and this changes a lot
