Life is not perfect, so why do we expect our emotions to be perfect?
In our social media-driven, image-obsessed world, everyone seems to be happy and positive all the time. We feel ashamed of experiencing negative emotions.
Positive emotions are worth cultivating, but being constantly upbeat carries its own risks. We must embrace all our emotions, not just the good ones. Research shows that experiencing and accepting anger and sadness are vital to our mental health.
Negative emotions can bring us to our depth — they connect us with our deeper selves.
