when i was a child my parents told me that i shouldn't cry, everytime i didn't cry when something bad happened, they praised me. i've became so numb i kinda forgot how to feel, you're vids are so helpful
+talkshh I think it is so messed up when I see a child get hurt and you can tell they are about to cry and their parents are like "Don't cry you are fine." or "Toughen up bud you are okay." And then you can visibly see the child just stuff down the emotion and not let their natural expression flow out. And then I think to myself "No wonder why I am so fucked up." lol
+talkshh When I would cry my mother would either call me an "actress" or tell me I was exaggerating. Yet on the flip side she would spent hours crying in front of me over how emotionally abusive my grandfather was.
it's great that you are able to forgive your parents, i'm in the process of doing that. we should all be able of letting go of the things that hurt us without remorse. thanks for the replies xx
My parent DID the exact same thing to me and as a result, I became a passive-aggressive Pollyanna who pretends that she's fine. I'm still so numb and indifferent that I love getting angry at people. It almost feels like a vibrational improvement.
My favourite part. "Let the train hit you, you are going to be fine." Sounds a lot like the guides that warn people right before an NDE...immediately back into despair...Take #463....Universe 1 - My Emotional Body - 0.
This program is my confirmation. Learning how to ALLOW feelings to pass thru the body after years of isolation has been a terrifying process. How wonderful to finally reach a point of being comfortable. & even enjoying experiencing emotions. The funny thing is, I was always able to sense OTHER people's feelings . Just not my own. Now, it's a whole new world. I still feel scared sometimes that I'm going to get into trouble for having my emotions. I realize it's because of my early training, compounded with religious training, that my feelings are BAD, and therefore, I am BAD. It is wonderful to be free to experience being human.
I got hit by that train in November 2016 backstage in Dublin. Teal was that train. Wow. Not a lot of fun at the time.But Teal is the master. I couldn`t take it negatively.I tried to go all negative but her insights are just too good.Her teachings have to be pursued with diligence. You have to do that work. Like learning an instrument. Teal is scary.But sometimes the scary ones are saving you from wasting your time on the spiritual treadmill. Way to go.
A few weeks ago I've come to realize that at some point I've become apathetic. And holy sh*t watching this has shown me that I may have been that person who is super emotionally intelligent to that point where I feel emotions coming from so far off that I find way to get away from them. Being a 2 year old and feeling the disappointment of the adults around me or a slight change in atmosphere, having completely intelligent conversations with adults 5 times my age. I was so confident and enthusiastic and full of excitement an feeling and somewhere along the line I began feeling less and less and and before the age of 4 I didn't even know or understand how it felt like to feel jealousy or hate. I also moved away from trusting people and even myself. Now I just close people out because of fear it seems like fear is the only thing I can feel, fear and anger, I'm not even keen to feeling happiness...however ever since I've discovered your channel I've activated my heart and for the first time in my 22 years of existence i was able to feel agony in my heart. It was strange but exciting because it was different than feeling with my head. This week I felt hurt because this girl who I like ignored me and instead she likes someone else, but I felt like that was development no matter who twisted that sounds. Thank you for this beautiful thing you do in which you help so many people who are suffering in so many different ways.
My entire perception has changed after watching this video and realising how blind I was to the strategies I subconsciously do to avoid certain emotions and it has put me one step closer to full awareness on negative behaviour. Thank you sm 🤯
I am alone deep buried in some dark place. no windows, after 39 years of non-life on Earth, almost no light anymore, but just a little bit of music. and Teal's videos are part of this music. No matter what it is, thank you for giving me something this coherent that resonates with me, to help me save me. I am tired of living since a long time, but I still like to understand and be challenged. Thank you for being a generous teacher, Teal. You are saving humans.
i never had a master. i love to listen to and trust myself. but everything she says is in alignment with me. i can therefor accept her as a master, without giving up on myself. so glad i found you teal, much love! :)
Spent my whole childhood around parents and foster parents who were long term incompatible and or alcoholics, consequently there the emotional environment was primarily toxic and negative. Recently listening to the brilliant teachings of Teal I have realized that positive happy emotions would have been strictly frowned upon in my family's of origin, consequently I have great difficulty appearing happy and laughing around people. The only time I laugh is when I'm by myself. Thank the universe for the genius of Teal Swan, she says what no one else does.
i remember when I was young, like a teenager, whenever I was having a good day with my friends, and I was feeling happy for something silly, I used to go home and tell my mom... and she always yelled at me for being silly and to naive...
I know how you feel, Luna. People tried to " correct" my behavior when I acted too silly or even "different than the norm" which was considered "strange". You just have to say to yourself "screw that"--and go ahead and be who you are! Because it is the ones who put you down or try to suppress you who are wrong, not you. YOU are perfectly sane, they are the ones who are actually crazy!
I have been watching this woman for almost a decade now. Im always coming back to her videos because there’s stuff im constantly not understanding. But this one I feel I don’t come back to a lot. I understand every one of her words. Emotions and feelings is not something that is a stranger to me. Im really empathetic and highly emotional and highly reactive. I love this cause it describes perfectly how to align with feelings. But i feel it’s a teaching I’ve already learned and worked through, namaste 🙏
The last part was so spot on. I couldn’t understand why I could sense other people’s emotions so well, but yet I felt disconnected with my own. Thanks for the content!
I believe that if we so much as hear something, it's because we needed to hear it. Last night, via a slew of Teal's videos (thank God for them!), my entire horrible terrible horrific life was put into perspective. Initially, the moment of breakthrough is not a happy moment. It made me furious, even though I knew absolutely what the issue is. I have been chasing wealth like a madman since 1992, and failing for exactly that long. The wealth I was chasing was specifically to avoid connection with others and make that avoidance comfortable. I was going to build my own perfect castle that nobody could ever get into, and be ultimately happy inside its walls. Life said no. You cannot have that. And that's just the way it is. Apparently my purpose here has been to bring all that avoidance of connection with others to the forefront of my existence with so much intensity that it could not possibly be ignored. Or avoided or escaped from. THEN start the process of learning how to connect with others. And it is exactly that - a process, not an event. Teal's material is such a refreshing breakthrough on every subject in life. Everything she puts out seems to be new material you won't find anywhere else.
When I was a child I felt totally disconnected from myself, because feeling was so excruciatingly painful I became numb, so I learned to disconnect myself from emotional pain, I became totally detached from myself and my environment, today I instinctively do it so that I don't feel the pain inside like the deepest cry of an animal in agony, I'm good at it, at separating myself from myself, why? For self survival, it is my shield, my armor, my safe place, but also my curse. Thank you for showing me how to deal with it!
Things are finally starting to click for me. These last two videos have served as some sort of immense epiphany that I haven't felt in a little while. So so so excited!
I'm happy to see men in the comments here, makes me feel like opening up since so often we've been taught to bury feelings and Man Up. Perhaps the boss move is realizing to TRULY man up you can take your emotions with you.
Wow! When I was younger, I used to avoid my feelings. In fact, I believed they did not exist in me. Then a "black pit" formed in my stomach. It was my wake up call to speak with someone. Years later, I learned how to feel and grow. Thank you for your insight, Teal - it is a confirmation of my work completed. All the best!
This is on the spot. Looking back over my life I can see how my messed up childhood caused me to separate and not feel. Not feeling becomes a habit. The subconscious mind has made it ok not to feel.
Thank you so much for this video. I was lost and confused and now I know where to start. Today I felt strong despair for the first time in years. From the bottom of my heart I want to thank you, you do an incredible job and you helped me.
I don't agree with what she said about despair being at the base. I believe we're created with an eternal hopeful core (soul) and that all feelings are temporary messages about our present life experience that guides us. No problem is permanent, personal or pervasive. Living from that hope and joy makes those difficult feelings manageable.
im horrible with feeling my own feelings. Always have been. The end result is that Im tense and angry a lot. And i experience weird anxiety that makes me feel out of touch with reality. About 9 months ago i was experiencing the weird anxiety for about 3 days straight. The i started feeling really sad about all my life choices and about my existence in general. I cried in front of a large group of people and told them how upset i was. It was really scary, but it led to the greatest two weeks of my life. For the next two weeks I actually FELT all my feelings. And it was amazing. Even when i was sad, i could just be sad and not run away from it. I also felt things like contentment, love, compassion, rapture peace. Those were all foreign to me. I also began to appreciate art and poetry, which had always baffled me before. But then came a moment when i was faced with a lot of pain and instead of expressing it, i ran from it and tried to hide it. That led to the most horrifying month of my life. I was still feeling, but i was almost perpetually feeling fear, anxiety and panic. Eventually i became frustrated and learned to shut down again. Since then i have been trying to feel again. Like all the time. Nothing seems to work. I just stay tense and angry. I really think i may be someone who needs to verbally express my emotions to someone to feel them. But that is embarrassing and terrifying. And i am pretty sure no one really eants to hear about my feelings, especially since i dont even know what they are most of the time. I really feel stuck.
Greg D'Orazio this is very similar to my story however I am just discovering how to feel my fear & despair which I've had for many years, it's scares the crap out of me to see & feel this emotional train hit me....ugh but I know I need this to change my beliefs.
I wish the whole world could be as REAL as YOU 💟 I have been viewing and listening to you for 2 years.... Between talking with my counselor and listening to some of your knowledge and has really helped me to come out of the brink of of staying stuck and sinking into a lifeless hole. I am now doing the best I can to be my authentic self !!! Thank you for your love and being real. Love and Hugz Bunches :)
This is me down to a T. Not only do I feel numb, my husband tells me my emotions show on my face too much.. Any videos on memory loss? I blocked out some negative experiences but also everything else from my childhood too. Thank you for these videos, they help me a lot, when I can wrap my head around the concepts! 💕🎀✨💗
I actually had a similar problem. What I did was watch her video called "healing the emotional body" and anytime any slightly negative emotion (or positive, really any slight emotion when you're numb ) popped up I would sit with it for as long as I could and ask myself when I first felt this emotion. A lot of childhood memories pop up often. It kind of helps you piece together a picture of what was happening in your childhood and really jogs your memory. It can be intense though. Therapy actually helps since there's someone right there with you to process any memories that may be a bit intense.
the best therapy for going through and seeing childhood experiences is mushrooms. my first trip was intense, but i was going through all these memories in the past and in the coming weeks i was trying to understand it and little by little i came to understand what the trip was about. i synthesized the trip in my opinion. teal doesn't condone psychedelics yet again teal is basically on a trip all the time due to her natural psychic abilities. we however do not have that, but we have the plant kingdom and all its medicines. the best part about a trip is it's YOUR experience. your perspective. not teal's. not the bible's not anyone else but your understanding from yourself. it's not an external thing at all like they say. it's your brain in a different chemical reaction and it is YOUR journey and understanding. shrooms allowed me to finally be what teal always says, be present. they give you that bravery. i have grown so much from them it's crazy. you have to be serious about them and see them as a medicine, not a fun thing to try.
+artisticagi I think the universe is trying to get me to try shrooms hahaha. I recently started talking to my ex again and we decided to hang out. He pulls out this bag of mushrooms and asks me if I would do them with him. I haven't yet, but I'm thinking about it. Then you post this. Hmmmm. But I agree, having assistance can be helpful. I often have used cannabis in the past to help me in my spiritual journey. However I am finding that I would more than ever love to be able to reach certain states of consciousness without assistance. I think thats the point! Haha, yes, Teal is on a never-ending "trip" and I would love to reach that state without using anything. I've been practicing a lot.. what has helped me the most is practicing astral projection and deep meditation. Those seem to be the biggest natural "trips" that I learn from.
+Rebekka K Davis. hm it's so funny i wasn't even going to write this, but i couldn't resist. That's really cool! definitely a sign. i have one question for you though. does listening to teal count as assistance? or meditation? because your brain naturally produces its own dmt. and plants are natural. truth is you wanna get from point a to point b. anything you do to close the gap from a to b in my opinion is "assistance" i don't think i could have gotten as deep and my brain could work faster than it ever has without the use of plant medicines at all. meditation is a really good tool, but it would not have been able to give me the journey that shrooms or cannabis have
+Paper Kawaii I understand you. I also blocked my childhood out for a number of years. I had to reintegrate the child that was me by understanding that I had rejected her and I had to accept and love her. I did get m memories back (even the ba ones) but I have yet to process all the pain. This has caused me to be less aware of my emotions and less emotionally expressive than I should be to others. I am working on facing my negative emotions so that I am no longer numb and can be more connected to others. It is scary to let that train hit you, but I'm getting stronger day by day.
Currently working through ptsd due to childhood trauma. I have felt like I'm never going to heal because I am emotionally and physically numb. I have tried so many things to help heal myself! I have recently started breathwork again and I feel confident it will help me because I'm working with a practitioner 1 on 1. Definitely going to use your tips too. Thank you so much Teal! Very grateful for your content! 💙
When I was a child my mom's boyfriend abused her and he hated me. I called him stupid and my mom told me to run and then he shoved her in a closet and hit me. He then got killed by police. Growing up I've always felt empty, scared of relationships and friendships, and I've always just felt useless in some ways. I have to say that video did get to me though. It's not normal for me to talk about my emotions but it got to me a lot so I appreciate it.
I appreciate Teal's encouragement to allow feelings to be experienced! I have found that this is best done with another person who is interested in my feelings and has more emotional capacity than I (and therefore can hold the feelings with me). So I would add to her 'how to' instructions the benefit of finding a safe relationship to hold this process. Otherwise, for those of us who have developed a self reliant strategy, we can inadvertently take the instructions and try to achieve results on our own, which can lead to alot of discouragement!
Step 1. Admit to where you are. Be aware that you are not feeling. Step 2. Practice coming back into your body. (Massaging feet/ankles, warm bath, breathing yourself into your body) Step 3. Set timer throughout the day report your feelings. Tightness, swelling buzzing. Shame. Try be aware why. 11:16 Step 4. Use strong emotions. Be fully present with the emotiouns. Undivided attention. Breathe continuously without pause in between breath. Watch video: how to heal the emotional body. Step 5. Create feeling experiences. Climb mountain. Swim in ocean. Step 6 Watch your emotions react to your thoughts. Think a thought 💭 that is absolutely wonderful, see how your emotion react. Think a thought 💭 that is horrible. How emotions react? Step 7. Ask yourself what bad thing would happen when I feel? What is the hidden positive intention I have for not feeling? Let go of the need to be in control. In order to start feeling if the hidden positive intention of not feeling is to stay in control. Step 8. Allowing yourself to express emotions (watch video: how to express emotions) Step 9. Willingly feel for the intense dispare. Step 10. Aware of what cognitive abilities you use to escape feelings before it happens.
Inside Out is my favorite Pixar movie because it presents a model of one's inner world and what happens when we experience trauma and are shaped into something new by allowing ourselves to experience a range of emotions.
this is hard for me to say. expressing myself in life wasn't easy. but this person swan. her videos literally save me. no pill could've have done for me like her videos. now I'm looking at Things differently. still working on myself though.
Lord Byron the English poet said it was the world that was messed up, "he" was sane. Agree! I feel that so much of the problem is that we are made to suppress our true selves. Thst always ends badly, so my advice is know thyself, be who you really are NO MATTER WHAT. Or else you will never be truly happy. Ignore whoever's doesnt like it--they just want to make you be like them, even if they are sick and twisted and miserable! Be brave...be yourself. I used to have a button that said "I'm Not Weird, I'm Gifted!" You will never be happy until you allow yourself to be your authentic self. If you dont know who that is, you have some work to do, dont you? One thing I did growing up, was to look outside my immediate family for role models...people who thought and felt like I did. What I discovered, was that most of the people I strongly identified with had died in the 19th century! (Teal Swan type of laugh here) But hey, that can happen! :)
The thing that helped me the most to become aware of my emotions again was to see others express their emotions vividly and think about a time that I'd felt the way they were feeling and empathize with them so that I could be able to get in touch with them in my self
I am 31 years old and yep I understand this because I had an unemotional mother and a stepfather who basically dismissed my feelings. They always thought “something was wrong with me” when I am actually feel my emotions. Then I worked with a guy who actually said my emotions are all over the place
Having a partner who was raised in this manner, explains so much in regard to how he behaved toward me and treated our relationship. I didn't understand it fully, but this video surely has brought an immense amount of understanding. Going to revisit this through the healing. Thank you.
Well , I am going to stand in front of a train this week...OMG...That is exactly what I do. I get the hell out of the way of any emotion long before it can run me down. In Fact, I will mourn the loss of a dear friend years later. Yes, I will put it off and suddenly realize that they are Dead. Then I dive deep into that emotion of loss. The words" boys don't cry" come to mind when I want to cry...I am reading your book and Its amazing...I do not put you on a pedestal , but I do admire your work and share it with my LDS family....Namaste"
Thank YouTeal . I have used numbness to cope for years until I could face life again. I Am always working to be a better version of me. Thank You for The Videos.
Teal I've been severely depressed most of my life. Yesterday I learned about Electro-Convulsive Therapy. I thought that it was a barbaric treatment used in the 1930's, I had no idea it was still being used today. I've done a bit of research and the treatment has evolved and to me it seems like a great option. I was very happy to discover it, and thought it might be my miracle treatment. I talked about it with my boyfriend and he was happy as well. I was dismayed when my psychiatrist did not share my enthusiasm, but he did say it is an option.
thank you very helpful video, I have been homeless three times because i could not let go of my anger or deal with negative situations assertively as they came up. could not stop my ego going wild when i needed to calm down .
Thank you :) :) i cried a lot but after that i felt my heart wide open and i saw a beautiful house where sunlight was coming inside and i was laughing n dancing :)
Hi Teal, i just want to thank you for all of your caring support on my spiritual path. I found you through Ralph smart and I refer to your videos often to both understsnd and deal with my motions. I cannot tell you enough how important your videos have been in my integration and understanding of myself and myself in relation to others. The value cannot be measured because the work you are doing sustains Life. And So, I just want to thank you for the time, attention to detail and the Love within your sharing and to inform you that I AM ever grateful for these videos. Thank you, thsnk you, thank you, Much Love, Cherokee
I've watched like twenty of your videos. And I would like to say you have helped me to much. I love you unconditionally. You are a beautiful human being. And we're so lucky you are with us. Bless you!
We can't feel is a perception of now. Not then or away. Good soul keeping brings the three together. The greatest power a human can have is through it's many relationships. It is the only that specific strength you keep forever. So be cool to each other!!!!!!!!!!! It will circle on. Make the Terann a better place.
i enjoyed this, you open my eyes and emotions on something i've been doing unconsciously for a long time without realizing why i felt this way. thank you!
Yes feelings let you know you're alive! I've been falling in love, and rather than running as usual, I've chosen to take things slow, only revealing one part of myself at a time, and it feels amazing. Scary, but worth it. Love makes everything hyper-real.
This seems really relevant for the collective consciousness right now. Worlds colliding! Thank you teal! Any way to speed up this process is appreciated.
I’m 39 and learned to not show emotion as a child because any emotion I showed would cause my mother extreme anxiety and then take it out on me. I still suffer from intimacy problems and probably will until the day that I die. My hope is that some day I can find a physically and emotionally fulfilling relationship. I’m terrified of really allowing someone to get to know the real me.
Feelings are the result of our interpretation of the perceptions. I'm unable to feel before thinking. When you're on a mindful or meditational state and your ego is disolved you dont judge reality, only percieve, witness, exist.
I love the understanding that Teal brings. But in this talk she overtly emphasised feeling negative emotions to unblock yourself. I reckon, you risk lowering your vibration if you do that. There is a reason your body is suppressing these emotions so that you remain healthy and functional. A better way would be to use positive emotion, visualisations and created experinces to feel more. This will achieve three things. 1. Get you off your vicious loop of finding more and more despair 2. Resolve the past negativity by creating its positive antidote 3. Raising your vibration and attracting positivity in your life. All this beside ofcourse unblocking you to feeling. Beside a strong stimulator, negative emotion is also a compass to get out of unhealthy situations and search for positivity. Aside this, it is impossible to not to love and be grateful to Teal. Namaste.
This was an especially well-structured, powerful, and smart instructional with equally impressive analytical (or perhaps intuitive?) breakdown on the very important subject of learning to feel. I specifically found the idea of treating despair as a gateway to feeling (freedom) to be quite marvelous and effective. Yet another video by Teal Swan that met my awareness at the divine right time to offer guidance on a mental inquiry I've entertained for the last few days on the very same subject. Thank you so much for being the catalyst, Teal
Thank you ss so much for your videos! They help me a lot. You sharing such treasures, is such a great gift! During this video, i let the train actually hit me. And I can cry again, finally.
EDIT: That last part... Bang, right into the heart. Exposed. I disconnected with my emotions because I was afraid I was going to be manipulated. It's a lot more complicated than that but a person who I thought was my friend was jealous that I had the girl he wanted as my girlfriend, and he tried to turn me against her. I was super unaware of what was going on back then. But after lots of stuff happened I realized that if I didn't want to be manipulated I would stop showing my thoughts. Then I stopped feeling emotions because they betrayed my thoughts. I started suppressing and repressing them at the start of their arising. I learned that. As soon as I sensed I'd feel something strong I immediately snuffed the life out of it. Needless to say my life went spiraling out of control downwards for many years to come after that. The worst thing was that I didn't realize why that was happening. I thought I'd had that perfect defense against any kind of manipulation, hence I'd be free and thriving. Uh-uh. My fear that if I let myself feel emotions, I'd be manipulated by someone, especially a girl that I like and want to be with. I can be super honest with people, with women specifically and I know how to express my desires. However, I'm always afraid, it's always there at the back of my mind that I'd be manipulated by them or by people around me because of the way I feel. If anyone can help me with this, I'd appreciate it. What to watch, read, listen to. I'm sick and tired of this way of living and want to reconnect with myself and my life.
@@katenka_ana3997 I'm trying. The mechanism of suppressing my emotions was so deeply rooted in my psyche I'm still unlearning it. What helps me most is meditation. Then mindfulness, self-compassion and loving-kindness towards myself and others. It's a long process of reconnecting with myself.
How do you handle emotions in the moment of conversation? What if showing your emotions isn't in your best interest at that time? Is it possible to really feel something without signaling to the environment what you're feeling?
woman, you are something special. I wish i have a relationship with someone just like you. The possibilities are to mutch to understand for logic thinkers. Thank you, and keep up the good work!. :)
Ive been on the pursuit to restore my feelings, I've done nothing but research this for a while. It's like you knew I needed this video Thanks Teal!! There really is a Source! (lol I crack myself up) You are definitely tuned into what we need!
Yes, I would say it did work, I spent years doing "the work", you have to do the work. You have to want it badly, you need to read self-help books, meditate, go to therapists or life coaches, whatever it takes. I am in stronger touch with my feelings and have grown into a much more in-tune person by pursuing spiritual paths and putting myself as a priority. Truly it's about overcoming or at least taking charge of your trauma and pain, admit and search for why you are in trauma and face it, learn to take your power back, learn that you are a god, that we are just extensions of source light and we are all capable of EVERYTHING. Accept that no one can hurt you, nothing anyone can do can hurt you. You are powerful you are loved, accept who you are no matter what it is. Your feelings aren't gone, they are just hidden, and feelings are true connection to source, and our feelings do not lie, you must listen to them and pay attention to what they are telling you. If you are numb you have been in trauma and pain for so long. I had to return to and face several past traumas, and it was painful, it is painful, but the pain subsides once you see you don't have to carry it anymore. I like the "emotional ladder" for assistance. Learn where you live on the emotional ladder and then take hope that you can always move yourself up rung by rung, and sometimes just moving to one higher rung is enough for now. Know that you can live there for a while before moving up to the next, then the next. And it's all ok. Your pain is ok, your numb is ok, we are all just trying to get through this life the best we can right?
Your video's and there content are far above standard psychology. I enjoy them very much. You al add an extra layer and give advice. Youre real, thank you so much for that.
Teal，it was such an honor to come to know you. I have been watching your videos as I go through my evolution. Currently I came across to the concept of "womb prayer" when I was trying to understand how a woman can balance her feminine and masculine energy into a warrior queen in this world and ages to come. I am interested to find a mantra for my womb meditation to get started. Look forward to your videos with love . ❤️
Another amazing video Teal!!! I am soo that person you described in the end! I am so naturally very sensitive to emotions and energy since I was born. I have grown to be very numb to almost everything for most of my life. I am only now starting to be who I truly am and remember how to feel again!
when i was a child my parents told me that i shouldn't cry, everytime i didn't cry when something bad happened, they praised me.
i've became so numb i kinda forgot how to feel, you're vids are so helpful
***** thank you so much ❤
+talkshh I think it is so messed up when I see a child get hurt and you can tell they are about to cry and their parents are like "Don't cry you are fine." or "Toughen up bud you are okay." And then you can visibly see the child just stuff down the emotion and not let their natural expression flow out. And then I think to myself "No wonder why I am so fucked up." lol
+talkshh When I would cry my mother would either call me an "actress" or tell me I was exaggerating. Yet on the flip side she would spent hours crying in front of me over how emotionally abusive my grandfather was.
it's great that you are able to forgive your parents, i'm in the process of doing that. we should all be able of letting go of the things that hurt us without remorse.
thanks for the replies xx
My parent DID the exact same thing to me and as a result, I became a passive-aggressive Pollyanna who pretends that she's fine. I'm still so numb and indifferent that I love getting angry at people. It almost feels like a vibrational improvement.
haha as she said "let the train hit you" I hear the train howling and rumbling in the distance. I love when synchronicity is at play.
U mean coincidence?
@@roamin2139 hm... It's a little more than that
Lol that’s hilarious the same thing happened to me!
Love that you shared this for the rest of us to experience!
My favourite part. "Let the train hit you, you are going to be fine." Sounds a lot like the guides that warn people right before an NDE...immediately back into despair...Take #463....Universe 1 - My Emotional Body - 0.
This program is my confirmation. Learning how to ALLOW feelings to pass thru the body after years of isolation has been a terrifying process. How wonderful to finally reach a point of being comfortable. & even enjoying experiencing emotions. The funny thing is, I was always able to sense OTHER people's feelings . Just not my own. Now, it's a whole new world. I still feel scared sometimes that I'm going to get into trouble for having my emotions. I realize it's because of my early training, compounded with religious training, that my feelings are BAD, and therefore, I am BAD. It is wonderful to be free to experience being human.
Beautiful!!! ❤️
Princess jasmine...
I wanna learn that to ( maybe i need it )
I got hit by that train in November 2016 backstage in Dublin. Teal was that train. Wow. Not a lot of fun at the time.But Teal is the master. I couldn`t take it negatively.I tried to go all negative but her insights are just too good.Her teachings have to be pursued with diligence. You have to do that work. Like learning an instrument. Teal is scary.But sometimes the scary ones are saving you from wasting your time on the spiritual treadmill. Way to go.
A few weeks ago I've come to realize that at some point I've become apathetic. And holy sh*t watching this has shown me that I may have been that person who is super emotionally intelligent to that point where I feel emotions coming from so far off that I find way to get away from them. Being a 2 year old and feeling the disappointment of the adults around me or a slight change in atmosphere, having completely intelligent conversations with adults 5 times my age. I was so confident and enthusiastic and full of excitement an feeling and somewhere along the line I began feeling less and less and and before the age of 4 I didn't even know or understand how it felt like to feel jealousy or hate. I also moved away from trusting people and even myself. Now I just close people out because of fear it seems like fear is the only thing I can feel, fear and anger, I'm not even keen to feeling happiness...however ever since I've discovered your channel I've activated my heart and for the first time in my 22 years of existence i was able to feel agony in my heart. It was strange but exciting because it was different than feeling with my head. This week I felt hurt because this girl who I like ignored me and instead she likes someone else, but I felt like that was development no matter who twisted that sounds. Thank you for this beautiful thing you do in which you help so many people who are suffering in so many different ways.
My entire perception has changed after watching this video and realising how blind I was to the strategies I subconsciously do to avoid certain emotions and it has put me one step closer to full awareness on negative behaviour. Thank you sm 🤯
I am alone deep buried in some dark place. no windows, after 39 years of non-life on Earth, almost no light anymore, but just a little bit of music. and Teal's videos are part of this music. No matter what it is, thank you for giving me something this coherent that resonates with me, to help me save me. I am tired of living since a long time, but I still like to understand and be challenged. Thank you for being a generous teacher, Teal. You are saving humans.
Yes, go for the challenge. You can do it....
I am 44 years old, and you just explained to me why some bad things happened in my life. G-d Bless you, dear Teal.
Feeling is a hallmark for being alive & a life without feeling is no life at all..
I love that there is hope in the truth. And every time she cracks a smile too.
I am starting to learn to take the good with the bad as a result of listening to Teal. Thanks Teal for being a brave warrior for emotional health!
i never had a master.
i love to listen to and trust myself. but everything she says is in alignment with me. i can therefor accept her as a master, without giving up on myself. so glad i found you teal, much love! :)
Spent my whole childhood around parents and foster parents who were long term incompatible and or alcoholics, consequently there the emotional environment was primarily toxic and negative. Recently listening to the brilliant teachings of Teal I have realized that positive happy emotions would have been strictly frowned upon in my family's of origin, consequently I have great difficulty appearing happy and laughing around people. The only time I laugh is when I'm by myself. Thank the universe for the genius of Teal Swan, she says what no one else does.
i remember when I was young, like a teenager, whenever I was having a good day with my friends, and I was feeling happy for something silly, I used to go home and tell my mom... and she always yelled at me for being silly and to naive...
I know how you feel, Luna. People tried to " correct" my behavior when I acted too silly or even "different than the norm" which was considered "strange". You just have to say to yourself "screw that"--and go ahead and be who you are! Because it is the ones who put you down or try to suppress you who are wrong, not you. YOU are perfectly sane, they are the ones who are actually crazy!
I have been watching this woman for almost a decade now. Im always coming back to her videos because there’s stuff im constantly not understanding. But this one I feel I don’t come back to a lot. I understand every one of her words. Emotions and feelings is not something that is a stranger to me. Im really empathetic and highly emotional and highly reactive. I love this cause it describes perfectly how to align with feelings. But i feel it’s a teaching I’ve already learned and worked through, namaste 🙏
it's no coincidence that "teal"
perfectly rhymes on "being real".
loooooool
and "heal" ;)
why is this comment not on top ?? :p
wtf
@@MercenarySmash feel
I have now decided to do the inner work
The last part was so spot on. I couldn’t understand why I could sense other people’s emotions so well, but yet I felt disconnected with my own. Thanks for the content!
I believe that if we so much as hear something, it's because we needed to hear it. Last night, via a slew of Teal's videos (thank God for them!), my entire horrible terrible horrific life was put into perspective. Initially, the moment of breakthrough is not a happy moment. It made me furious, even though I knew absolutely what the issue is. I have been chasing wealth like a madman since 1992, and failing for exactly that long. The wealth I was chasing was specifically to avoid connection with others and make that avoidance comfortable. I was going to build my own perfect castle that nobody could ever get into, and be ultimately happy inside its walls. Life said no. You cannot have that. And that's just the way it is. Apparently my purpose here has been to bring all that avoidance of connection with others to the forefront of my existence with so much intensity that it could not possibly be ignored. Or avoided or escaped from. THEN start the process of learning how to connect with others. And it is exactly that - a process, not an event. Teal's material is such a refreshing breakthrough on every subject in life. Everything she puts out seems to be new material you won't find anywhere else.
When I was a child I felt totally disconnected from myself, because feeling was so excruciatingly painful I became numb, so I learned to disconnect myself from emotional pain, I became totally detached from myself and my environment, today I instinctively do it so that I don't feel the pain inside like the deepest cry of an animal in agony, I'm good at it, at separating myself from myself, why? For self survival, it is my shield, my armor, my safe place, but also my curse. Thank you for showing me how to deal with it!
It's time to go on a journey, bless you
Things are finally starting to click for me. These last two videos have served as some sort of immense epiphany that I haven't felt in a little while. So so so excited!
I hear you! Be accepting of your feelings even if they’re bad. Let it flow through you, genius thank you Teal
I'm happy to see men in the comments here, makes me feel like opening up since so often we've been taught to bury feelings and Man Up. Perhaps the boss move is realizing to TRULY man up you can take your emotions with you.
Wow! When I was younger, I used to avoid my feelings. In fact, I believed they did not exist in me. Then a "black pit" formed in my stomach. It was my wake up call to speak with someone. Years later, I learned how to feel and grow. Thank you for your insight, Teal - it is a confirmation of my work completed. All the best!
This is on the spot. Looking back over my life I can see how my messed up childhood caused me to separate and not feel.
Not feeling becomes a habit.
The subconscious mind has made it ok not to feel.
Thank you so much for this video. I was lost and confused and now I know where to start. Today I felt strong despair for the first time in years. From the bottom of my heart I want to thank you, you do an incredible job and you helped me.
I don't agree with what she said about despair being at the base. I believe we're created with an eternal hopeful core (soul) and that all feelings are temporary messages about our present life experience that guides us. No problem is permanent, personal or pervasive. Living from that hope and joy makes those difficult feelings manageable.
im horrible with feeling my own feelings. Always have been. The end result is that Im tense and angry a lot. And i experience weird anxiety that makes me feel out of touch with reality.
About 9 months ago i was experiencing the weird anxiety for about 3 days straight. The i started feeling really sad about all my life choices and about my existence in general. I cried in front of a large group of people and told them how upset i was. It was really scary, but it led to the greatest two weeks of my life.
For the next two weeks I actually FELT all my feelings. And it was amazing. Even when i was sad, i could just be sad and not run away from it. I also felt things like contentment, love, compassion, rapture peace. Those were all foreign to me. I also began to appreciate art and poetry, which had always baffled me before.
But then came a moment when i was faced with a lot of pain and instead of expressing it, i ran from it and tried to hide it. That led to the most horrifying month of my life. I was still feeling, but i was almost perpetually feeling fear, anxiety and panic. Eventually i became frustrated and learned to shut down again.
Since then i have been trying to feel again. Like all the time. Nothing seems to work. I just stay tense and angry. I really think i may be someone who needs to verbally express my emotions to someone to feel them. But that is embarrassing and terrifying. And i am pretty sure no one really eants to hear about my feelings, especially since i dont even know what they are most of the time. I really feel stuck.
i can deeply relate to your story. tell the world about it!!!
Greg D'Orazio this is very similar to my story however I am just discovering how to feel my fear & despair which I've had for many years, it's scares the crap out of me to see & feel this emotional train hit me....ugh but I know I need this to change my beliefs.
the only thing that makes me cry is telling someone else I am sad
O yea, nail it again :) People are running from feelings so they are running from them self.
I have every right to feel the way i feel
I wish the whole world could be as REAL as YOU 💟
I have been viewing and listening to you for 2 years....
Between talking with my counselor and listening to some of your knowledge and has really helped me to come out of the brink of of staying stuck and sinking into a lifeless hole.
I am now doing the best I can to be my authentic self !!!
Thank you for your love and being real.
Love and Hugz Bunches :)
+Aphrodite7stars so lovely to tell her that
❤️

He I wanna have realation with you
This is me down to a T. Not only do I feel numb, my husband tells me my emotions show on my face too much..
Any videos on memory loss? I blocked out some negative experiences but also everything else from my childhood too. Thank you for these videos, they help me a lot, when I can wrap my head around the concepts! 💕🎀✨💗
I actually had a similar problem. What I did was watch her video called "healing the emotional body" and anytime any slightly negative emotion (or positive, really any slight emotion when you're numb ) popped up I would sit with it for as long as I could and ask myself when I first felt this emotion. A lot of childhood memories pop up often. It kind of helps you piece together a picture of what was happening in your childhood and really jogs your memory.
It can be intense though. Therapy actually helps since there's someone right there with you to process any memories that may be a bit intense.
the best therapy for going through and seeing childhood experiences is mushrooms. my first trip was intense, but i was going through all these memories in the past and in the coming weeks i was trying to understand it and little by little i came to understand what the trip was about. i synthesized the trip in my opinion. teal doesn't condone psychedelics yet again teal is basically on a trip all the time due to her natural psychic abilities. we however do not have that, but we have the plant kingdom and all its medicines. the best part about a trip is it's YOUR experience. your perspective. not teal's. not the bible's not anyone else but your understanding from yourself. it's not an external thing at all like they say. it's your brain in a different chemical reaction and it is YOUR journey and understanding. shrooms allowed me to finally be what teal always says, be present. they give you that bravery. i have grown so much from them it's crazy. you have to be serious about them and see them as a medicine, not a fun thing to try.
+artisticagi I think the universe is trying to get me to try shrooms hahaha. I recently started talking to my ex again and we decided to hang out. He pulls out this bag of mushrooms and asks me if I would do them with him. I haven't yet, but I'm thinking about it. Then you post this. Hmmmm.
But I agree, having assistance can be helpful. I often have used cannabis in the past to help me in my spiritual journey. However I am finding that I would more than ever love to be able to reach certain states of consciousness without assistance. I think thats the point! Haha, yes, Teal is on a never-ending "trip" and I would love to reach that state without using anything. I've been practicing a lot.. what has helped me the most is practicing astral projection and deep meditation. Those seem to be the biggest natural "trips" that I learn from.
+Rebekka K Davis. hm it's so funny i wasn't even going to write this, but i couldn't resist. That's really cool! definitely a sign. i have one question for you though. does listening to teal count as assistance? or meditation? because your brain naturally produces its own dmt. and plants are natural. truth is you wanna get from point a to point b. anything you do to close the gap from a to b in my opinion is "assistance"
i don't think i could have gotten as deep and my brain could work faster than it ever has without the use of plant medicines at all. meditation is a really good tool, but it would not have been able to give me the journey that shrooms or cannabis have
+Paper Kawaii I understand you. I also blocked my childhood out for a number of years. I had to reintegrate the child that was me by understanding that I had rejected her and I had to accept and love her. I did get m memories back (even the ba ones) but I have yet to process all the pain. This has caused me to be less aware of my emotions and less emotionally expressive than I should be to others. I am working on facing my negative emotions so that I am no longer numb and can be more connected to others. It is scary to let that train hit you, but I'm getting stronger day by day.
Currently working through ptsd due to childhood trauma. I have felt like I'm never going to heal because I am emotionally and physically numb. I have tried so many things to help heal myself! I have recently started breathwork again and I feel confident it will help me because I'm working with a practitioner 1 on 1. Definitely going to use your tips too. Thank you so much Teal! Very grateful for your content! 💙
When I was a child my mom's boyfriend abused her and he hated me. I called him stupid and my mom told me to run and then he shoved her in a closet and hit me. He then got killed by police. Growing up I've always felt empty, scared of relationships and friendships, and I've always just felt useless in some ways.
I have to say that video did get to me though. It's not normal for me to talk about my emotions but it got to me a lot so I appreciate it.
I just realized I've been numb for such a long time the thought of feeling again feels so overwhelming omg
I appreciate Teal's encouragement to allow feelings to be experienced! I have found that this is best done with another person who is interested in my feelings and has more emotional capacity than I (and therefore can hold the feelings with me). So I would add to her 'how to' instructions the benefit of finding a safe relationship to hold this process. Otherwise, for those of us who have developed a self reliant strategy, we can inadvertently take the instructions and try to achieve results on our own, which can lead to alot of discouragement!
Step 1. Admit to where you are. Be aware that you are not feeling.
Step 2. Practice coming back into your body. (Massaging feet/ankles, warm bath, breathing yourself into your body)
Step 3. Set timer throughout the day report your feelings. Tightness, swelling buzzing. Shame. Try be aware why.
11:16
Step 4.
Use strong emotions. Be fully present with the emotiouns. Undivided attention. Breathe continuously without pause in between breath. Watch video: how to heal the emotional body.
Step 5.
Create feeling experiences. Climb mountain. Swim in ocean.
Step 6
Watch your emotions react to your thoughts. Think a thought 💭 that is absolutely wonderful, see how your emotion react. Think a thought 💭 that is horrible. How emotions react?
Step 7.
Ask yourself what bad thing would happen when I feel?
What is the hidden positive intention I have for not feeling?
Let go of the need to be in control. In order to start feeling if the hidden positive intention of not feeling is to stay in control.
Step 8.
Allowing yourself to express emotions (watch video: how to express emotions)
Step 9.
Willingly feel for the intense dispare.
Step 10.
Aware of what cognitive abilities you use to escape feelings before it happens.
thank you
Inside Out is my favorite Pixar movie because it presents a model of one's inner world and what happens when we experience trauma and are shaped into something new by allowing ourselves to experience a range of emotions.
this is hard for me to say. expressing myself in life wasn't easy. but this person swan. her videos literally save me. no pill could've have done for me like her videos. now I'm looking at Things differently. still working on myself though.
Lord Byron the English poet said it was the world that was messed up, "he" was sane. Agree! I feel that so much of the problem is that we are made to suppress our true selves. Thst always ends badly, so my advice is know thyself, be who you really are NO MATTER WHAT. Or else you will never be truly happy. Ignore whoever's doesnt like it--they just want to make you be like them, even if they are sick and twisted and miserable! Be brave...be yourself. I used to have a button that said "I'm Not Weird, I'm Gifted!" You will never be happy until you allow yourself to be your authentic self. If you dont know who that is, you have some work to do, dont you? One thing I did growing up, was to look outside my immediate family for role models...people who thought and felt like I did. What I discovered, was that most of the people I strongly identified with had died in the 19th century! (Teal Swan type of laugh here) But hey, that can happen! :)
I've tried karaoke & dancing as a way to feel emotions, I've always been against both these activities & I've learned so much from doing this.
So helpful. Much needed. Of course when I was growing up emotions did not exist.
I thank the Most High for your Huge Heart that inspired you to speak these truths at this time of Cosmic shift/evolution ♥️ 🙏🏾✨👑
A Life with out feeling is no life at all, thank YOU, u help my life
The thing that helped me the most to become aware of my emotions again was to see others express their emotions vividly and think about a time that I'd felt the way they were feeling and empathize with them so that I could be able to get in touch with them in my self
Rebeca Cervantes I sometimes do that and just get extremely frustrated that I don't get to feel those things anymore
I am 31 years old and yep I understand this because I had an unemotional mother and a stepfather who basically dismissed my feelings. They always thought “something was wrong with me” when I am actually feel my emotions. Then I worked with a guy who actually said my emotions are all over the place
Having a partner who was raised in this manner, explains so much in regard to how he behaved toward me and treated our relationship. I didn't understand it fully, but this video surely has brought an immense amount of understanding. Going to revisit this through the healing. Thank you.
This video was directed to my 17 year old.. Great analyzation
Well , I am going to stand in front of a train this week...OMG...That is exactly what I do. I get the hell out of the way of any emotion long before it can run me down. In Fact, I will mourn the loss of a dear friend years later. Yes, I will put it off and suddenly realize that they are Dead. Then I dive deep into that emotion of loss. The words" boys don't cry" come to mind when I want to cry...I am reading your book and Its amazing...I do not put you on a pedestal , but I do admire your work and share it with my LDS family....Namaste"
What you actually parent in life is feelings. Lifr is feelings and all feelings drive behaviour
“Call off the guards...” wow. Life changing and so insightful-thank you!
Thank YouTeal . I have used numbness to cope for years until I could face life again. I Am always working to be a better version of me. Thank You for The Videos.
When you align with life, everyone's foolishness is naked.
My feelings are my boundaries. Inner work 101
I FEEL content that I got to see this video. This will change my life!
Teal I've been severely depressed most of my life. Yesterday I learned about Electro-Convulsive Therapy. I thought that it was a barbaric treatment used in the 1930's, I had no idea it was still being used today. I've done a bit of research and the treatment has evolved and to me it seems like a great option. I was very happy to discover it, and thought it might be my miracle treatment. I talked about it with my boyfriend and he was happy as well. I was dismayed when my psychiatrist did not share my enthusiasm, but he did say it is an option.
thank you very helpful video, I have been homeless three times because i could not let go of my anger or deal with negative situations assertively as they came up. could not stop my ego going wild when i needed to calm down .
The last 3 minutes !!!!
You nailed it babe.
Love you 😘
+Atal Faraz Your Teal? She's my Teal. Anyway that shall be decided after our duel. =)
everyone, you must realize she is an infinite being, she belongs to no one
So komal jha is here...
Hi teal swan,you know it guard.
Thank.I wanted to say your video "How to heal an emotional body" is truly a masterpiece.
Thank you Teal for sharing your experiences.
Thank you :) :) i cried a lot but after that i felt my heart wide open and i saw a beautiful house where sunlight was coming inside and i was laughing n dancing :)
Hi Teal, i just want to thank you for all of your caring support on my spiritual path. I found you through Ralph smart and I refer to your videos often to both understsnd and deal with my motions. I cannot tell you enough how important your videos have been in my integration and understanding of myself and myself in relation to others. The value cannot be measured because the work you are doing sustains Life. And So, I just want to thank you for the time, attention to detail and the Love within your sharing and to inform you that I AM ever grateful for these videos. Thank you, thsnk you, thank you, Much Love, Cherokee
I just realised I completely depersonalised everything a year ago... thank you for explaining this so well... wake up call
I'm so shocked that your videos have come into my life as and when I need them, thank you for guiding me, I would love to meet you in the future
Amazing lesson. Thank you, Teall, you are my Guide !!!
Feeling gets the blessing. Thank you Teal.
I've watched like twenty of your videos. And I would like to say you have helped me to much. I love you unconditionally. You are a beautiful human being. And we're so lucky you are with us. Bless you!
We can't feel is a perception of now. Not then or away. Good soul keeping brings the three together.
The greatest power a human can have is through it's many relationships. It is the only that specific strength you keep forever.
So be cool to each other!!!!!!!!!!! It will circle on. Make the Terann a better place.
When you’ve lost people you love you kinda feel you don’t want to feel hurt anymore!
Happy to see Dean Winchester here! I admire your way of thinking, and your hair.
i enjoyed this, you open my eyes and emotions on something i've been doing unconsciously for a long time without realizing why i felt this way. thank you!
Yes feelings let you know you're alive! I've been falling in love, and rather than running as usual, I've chosen to take things slow, only revealing one part of myself at a time, and it feels amazing. Scary, but worth it. Love makes everything hyper-real.
Teal Scott you know me so well!!! Story of my LIFE!!!! Thank youuuuu always
Sooooo right on. Feeling like I had lost access to my emotions. Like there is always healing I have to do....to be "normal"
I printed an emotional wheel and I was planning to use a timer randomly to check in on how I'm feeling... then I watched this video. 🙌
This seems really relevant for the collective consciousness right now. Worlds colliding! Thank you teal! Any way to speed up this process is appreciated.
I’m 39 and learned to not show emotion as a child because any emotion I showed would cause my mother extreme anxiety and then take it out on me. I still suffer from intimacy problems and probably will until the day that I die.
My hope is that some day I can find a physically and emotionally fulfilling relationship. I’m terrified of really allowing someone to get to know the real me.
Feelings are the result of our interpretation of the perceptions. I'm unable to feel before thinking. When you're on a mindful or meditational state and your ego is disolved you dont judge reality, only percieve, witness, exist.
So ,it is thinking to feeling ? Or feeling to thinking?
The last part, is Severe Truth!! Thanks! For the reading.
Thank you so much Teal!!!!
I love the understanding that Teal brings. But in this talk she overtly emphasised feeling negative emotions to unblock yourself. I reckon, you risk lowering your vibration if you do that. There is a reason your body is suppressing these emotions so that you remain healthy and functional. A better way would be to use positive emotion, visualisations and created experinces to feel more. This will achieve three things. 1. Get you off your vicious loop of finding more and more despair 2. Resolve the past negativity by creating its positive antidote 3. Raising your vibration and attracting positivity in your life. All this beside ofcourse unblocking you to feeling. Beside a strong stimulator, negative emotion is also a compass to get out of unhealthy situations and search for positivity. Aside this, it is impossible to not to love and be grateful to Teal. Namaste.
Perfect timing in my life for this video ! Thank you
This was an especially well-structured, powerful, and smart instructional with equally impressive analytical (or perhaps intuitive?) breakdown on the very important subject of learning to feel. I specifically found the idea of treating despair as a gateway to feeling (freedom) to be quite marvelous and effective.
Yet another video by Teal Swan that met my awareness at the divine right time to offer guidance on a mental inquiry I've entertained for the last few days on the very same subject. Thank you so much for being the catalyst, Teal
Excellent Video Teal. Totally and deeply feeling pain is the most powerful transformation force and the wisest eye opener to reality.
And here we are 4 yrs later and she's still a North Star.⭐
Thank you ss so much for your videos! They help me a lot. You sharing such treasures, is such a great gift! During this video, i let the train actually hit me. And I can cry again, finally.
Thank you for this, Teal!
EDIT: That last part... Bang, right into the heart. Exposed.
I disconnected with my emotions because I was afraid I was going to be manipulated. It's a lot more complicated than that but a person who I thought was my friend was jealous that I had the girl he wanted as my girlfriend, and he tried to turn me against her. I was super unaware of what was going on back then. But after lots of stuff happened I realized that if I didn't want to be manipulated I would stop showing my thoughts. Then I stopped feeling emotions because they betrayed my thoughts. I started suppressing and repressing them at the start of their arising. I learned that. As soon as I sensed I'd feel something strong I immediately snuffed the life out of it. Needless to say my life went spiraling out of control downwards for many years to come after that. The worst thing was that I didn't realize why that was happening. I thought I'd had that perfect defense against any kind of manipulation, hence I'd be free and thriving. Uh-uh.
My fear that if I let myself feel emotions, I'd be manipulated by someone, especially a girl that I like and want to be with. I can be super honest with people, with women specifically and I know how to express my desires. However, I'm always afraid, it's always there at the back of my mind that I'd be manipulated by them or by people around me because of the way I feel.
If anyone can help me with this, I'd appreciate it. What to watch, read, listen to. I'm sick and tired of this way of living and want to reconnect with myself and my life.
Im experiencing the exact same thing as you. Its been 9 months since u commented but worth to try to ask: did u find any solution afterall?
do u feel again
@@katenka_ana3997 did his video help you am barely 14 and started my journey to healing recovery
@@katenka_ana3997 I'm trying. The mechanism of suppressing my emotions was so deeply rooted in my psyche I'm still unlearning it. What helps me most is meditation. Then mindfulness, self-compassion and loving-kindness towards myself and others. It's a long process of reconnecting with myself.
How do you handle emotions in the moment of conversation? What if showing your emotions isn't in your best interest at that time? Is it possible to really feel something without signaling to the environment what you're feeling?
woman, you are something special.
I wish i have a relationship with someone just like you.
The possibilities are to mutch to understand for logic thinkers.
Thank you, and keep up the good work!. :)
Of all the things in the infine cosmos.... I think about how to feel and it brings me to you!
I'm watching your videos from long time ago and I never said thanks ... so Thanks for making them for us!
Ive been on the pursuit to restore my feelings, I've done nothing but research this for a while. It's like you knew I needed this video Thanks Teal!! There really is a Source! (lol I crack myself up) You are definitely tuned into what we need!
Michelle Tribble did it work and what did you do
Yes, I would say it did work, I spent years doing "the work", you have to do the work. You have to want it badly, you need to read self-help books, meditate, go to therapists or life coaches, whatever it takes. I am in stronger touch with my feelings and have grown into a much more in-tune person by pursuing spiritual paths and putting myself as a priority. Truly it's about overcoming or at least taking charge of your trauma and pain, admit and search for why you are in trauma and face it, learn to take your power back, learn that you are a god, that we are just extensions of source light and we are all capable of EVERYTHING. Accept that no one can hurt you, nothing anyone can do can hurt you. You are powerful you are loved, accept who you are no matter what it is. Your feelings aren't gone, they are just hidden, and feelings are true connection to source, and our feelings do not lie, you must listen to them and pay attention to what they are telling you. If you are numb you have been in trauma and pain for so long. I had to return to and face several past traumas, and it was painful, it is painful, but the pain subsides once you see you don't have to carry it anymore. I like the "emotional ladder" for assistance. Learn where you live on the emotional ladder and then take hope that you can always move yourself up rung by rung, and sometimes just moving to one higher rung is enough for now. Know that you can live there for a while before moving up to the next, then the next. And it's all ok. Your pain is ok, your numb is ok, we are all just trying to get through this life the best we can right?
Your video's and there content are far above standard psychology. I enjoy them very much. You al add an extra layer and give advice. Youre real, thank you so much for that.
Excellent! You really have the gift to transform people's lives! I am always looking forward to your next video ...
Keep up the great work !!
Teal，it was such an honor to come to know you. I have been watching your videos as I go through my evolution. Currently I came across to the concept of "womb prayer" when I was trying to understand how a woman can balance her feminine and masculine energy into a warrior queen in this world and ages to come. I am interested to find a mantra for my womb meditation to get started. Look forward to your videos with love . ❤️
We're all Teal Swan!
Wow this innocent and authentic teal is gone nowadays
Another amazing video Teal!!! I am soo that person you described in the end! I am so naturally very sensitive to emotions and energy since I was born. I have grown to be very numb to almost everything for most of my life. I am only now starting to be who I truly am and remember how to feel again!
thanks once again teal, i didnt even realize i had a problem with this. something inside me just said "watch that video it will help" and it has :)
Speaking is so effortless for you, i love it
this is so great. i'd like everybody to know about it but i'm afraid most people wouldn't want to listen because of spiritual labelling.
