Emotional Health

Emotions Wheel: Struggling to Name How You Feel? Try Using This Wheel. Start from the options in the center, work your way out, landing on the emotion that best describes the feeling currently overtaking your body and mind. Whatever you're feeling, try to accept the emotion without judgment. If you resist feeling, it will only get stronger and come out in unexpected ways. Instead, celebrate your emotions! They are signaling to you that either something really matters, or that you've been forcing something that isn't for you. Even if your emotion feels overwhelming, it will pass.
