I find it helpful to let myself name, acknowledge and feel my feelings, rather than letting them stay inside as a repressed, confused mess.
Using this wheel, how do you feel right now?
Right now I feel: Sleepy, Let Down/Betrayed, Annoyed, Hurt/Embarrassed, Abandoned, Trusting/Sensitive, Thankful, Valued, Proud, Curious, Free, Confused/Disillusioned/Shocked.
I just pulled this out with the intention of identifying some negative feelings I was having, but I followed it all the way around and realised that there are lots of positive ones in there too. It made me feel good to realise that, as it helped to not let the painful feelings take over.

I’m with you. No negative feelings today. Even when I have had them they were fleeting. Today, I am feeling blessed, optimistic, rested and serene!
