An interesting fact is that the chemical process of an emotion only lasts 90 seconds.

Then, why is it that our feelings can feel like an eternity?

I talk a bit more about it here and some more below:

After 90 seconds are up, any additional or remaining response is the individual choosing (consciously or unconsciously) to stay in that loop. I say unconsciously because it may not be intentional and for some, something different isn’t within their wheelhouse or control just yet.

Does it baffle you as much as it does me why this isn’t the sort of thing we are taught in school?

Humans suffer so much from our thoughts, feelings, beliefs, relationships and all the stuff!

Often as we have a sad thought which creates the sad emotion, we follow it up with another sad thought, similar or maybe even the same one (hence me saying loop earlier, lol) Then, that leads to another and another and before we know it, it feels like we’ve been sad for hours, days, weeks or months.

What if that loop could be stopped?

This can be a challenging feat so I do not say it lightly.

For those who have not had the support or resources to learn otherwise, it feels near impossible to create space between the thoughts/beliefs, causing the emotion and reactions so the cycle just keeps repeating.

It’s awful - I’ve been there so I get it! But there are ways to create that space.

There are tools that can help ease the discomfort and lessen the duration. I’m not saying they are easy either, but they are available.

My hope here is to share this information with you to support your emotional health, enhance your self-awareness, and better equip your toolbox ♡

It is never too late to learn healthier ways to deal and it is always worth it!
