Welcome to Cataclysm Corner. I'm your host, Val. I don't give answers, I give awakenings. If you're here, something in your life is already shifting. Let's poke it. Here's today's question. What if all the emotions you bottle up are just adding unnecessary baggage? Consider what it is that you bottle up or put on a back burner. Consider whether you ever readdress it. Consider what would happen if you were to take the time and space to sort through and release all those bottled up things you keep hidden in your heart. Children are a prime example. Think about it. They get a big emotion, such as anger or sadness. They feel it in the moment, flow through it, release it, and go back to being carefree. Humans have a natural sense of flow state until society pressures them into conforming. Family, friends, neighbors, schoolmates, the list goes on, honestly, but everyone tells you you can't feel that right now, or they imply you're too sensitive or you're too much. So you learn to bottle it all up and toss it into a pile of unresolved and forgotten things on your heart. As time goes on, those bat those bottles get denser, heavier. They don't grow, they just require attention. And the only way they know how to ask for your attention is to become denser, become heavier. If you never readdress those bottled up things, they will continue to weigh on you and they will keep you feeling heavy. When you take the time and space to assess each bottle, you can lighten your load. No, it is not easy. Nothing is nothing that is worth anything ever is. However, when you sit with it and work through it, you are given the ability to release it and move on. Once you begin processing and releasing pent up bottles, you'll find yourself lighter. Not only does your heart feel free once again, but you'll find that you made space for better things to fill your heart. So this was Cataclysm Corner with Val. If something in you is twitching, good. That's the point, baby. Go let that question mess with your life a little bit. Catch you in the next disruption.
