The Journal of Emotions
Identify the truth behind your most overwhelming emotions
The Emotions Journal is here to help you, through daily exercise, to understand what your relationship is with each individual emotion.
The Journal of Emotions
Descriere
Do you often have moments when strong emotions destabilize you and you don't know how to deal with them?
Do you tend to either hide your strong emotions, or to ruminate on them endlessly, which causes you a constant state of anxiety? Would you like to know what is hidden behind the emotions that appear with the greatest frequency in your life?
We created the Emotions Journal together with psychologists Sorana Kapusta and Mirela Pop to help you make peace with everything you feel and to more easily identify the truth behind your most overwhelming emotions.
Because most of the time things are clearer when you give yourself time and space to process them, by constantly writing in your diary you will come to understand your emotional baggage, but also to handle difficult moments of stress and anxiety more easily.
CAREFUL! To complete the exercise in the diary and answer all the questions, you need silence, privacy and complete openness - don't judge yourself, don't put yourself down for what you feel!
Use the Wheel of Emotions to carefully decipher what you feel and to familiarize yourself with both the main emotions and the secondary ones, perhaps more difficult to identify.

Dorinta de perfectiune m-a ghidat toata viata. Am crezut mereu ca e cea mai importanta trasatura a mea. Insa, in timp, am realizat ca ea a venit la pachet cu foarte multa presiune pe care o puneam vesnic asupra mea: presiune de a reusi mereu sa fac totul singura, de a nu cere niciodata ajutor. Eram mereu incordata, blocata de teama de a nu face ceva gresit, de a nu supara sau dezamagi. Aceasta frica paralizanta m-a manat sa cer intotdeuna mai mult de la mine, sa muncesc mai mult, sa dovedesc mereu de ce nu sunt capabila, sa nu am nevoie niciodata de ajutor de la nimeni. Mi-am dorit sa impartasesc cat mai multor oameni experientele mele si uneltele care m-au ajutat sa depasesc obsesia pentru perfectiune si momentele grele din viata mea pentru a dobandi astfel echilibrul si linistea interioara. Vreau sa impartasesc ce m-a ajutat sa ies de pe pilot automat, cum am devenit mai constienta de mine si de nevoile mele si care sunt metodele si tehnicile de mindfulness si dezvoltare personala care m-au vindecat de anxietate si ulterior de depresie.
M-am bucurat sa lucrez la Jurnalul Emotiilor, cred ca avem cu totii nevoie de unelte care sa ne sprijine si sa ne limpezeasca macar putin pe dinauntru, mai ales in perioada grea pe care o traim de aproape doi ani incoace. Sper ca va ajuta cat mai multi oameni sa aiba o intelegere si poate o acceptare a propriilor emotii, si cel mai important, sper ca cititorii sa simta ca nu sunt singuri orice ar simti, cu totii impartasim aceeasi lume interioara vasta.

Ne-am gandit ca psihoterapia poate continua si acasa, sau poate incepe acasa, fara aportul unui terapeut. Acest caiet ofera directiile pe care oricine le poate gasi folositoare atunci cand emotiile si senzatiile din corp devin coplesitoare.
