Have you ever felt this way:

• Like you’re missing out on the “big secret” to happiness?
• As if you don’t recognize the person in the mirror?
• Anxiety making it hard to fall asleep and stay asleep?

Us too, friend! Life can feel like a real drag sometimes. But misery loves company, and we ALL hit the rough patches. Your struggles are not unique! We can say this because we’ve been where you are. Using the Feeling Wheel to name our emotions helps to put a proverbial face to what’s bothering us most. And, when you name it, you can start to tame it! So let’s get into our feels!

What’s that you’re feeling??!

Who knows, right? Well, actually, maybe we do. 

Using the Feeling Wheel, you might just realize there is a name for exactly how you’re feeling. Naming a feeling in greater detail than simply sad/mad etc. makes it easier to handle and understand possible triggers. Understanding and exploring our emotions and feelings is empowering. Now, you’re running the show! Bonus: It’s magnetic! Your pizza delivery magnet might be jealous, but the fridge is a great place for the Feeling Wheel.

What’s in it?

• Magnetic chart with 6 quadrants of unique emotions. Starting in the middle with basic emotions, then work your way outward to find more specific emotions.

How To Use the Feeling Exploration Wheel

• The Feeling Wheel can take as little or as much time as you want. 
• Sprinting out the door to work but wanting a quick check in with yourself? Use the Feeling Wheel to get an immediate emotional barometer reading to help you face the day with your best foot forward. In this way, you can get a handle on your emotions at home first, so you can focus on being present for all of life’s amazing moments.
• Here’s an example for you: You’ve begged your boss to take a chance on you and give you a large project at work. Boss finally assigns the task to you, and the first thing you start to do is second guess yourself. “I don’t have the skills for this! I’m in way over my head.” 
• In this moment, YOU have become the biggest roadblock in completing this project, and the Feeling Wheel can help you work through these feelings of “Imposter Syndrome.”
