What Happened When I Stopped Hiding My Emotions<\/h1>\n<p>Have you ever had so much pent-up grief, anger, and sorrow that no matter how hard you tried to \u201cbutton it up,\u201d it came pouring out of you? Like your floodgates didn\u2019t simply open\u2014 they blew off the hinges?<\/p>\n<p>Welp! That was me last week.<\/p>\n<p>I walked into\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.miravalresorts.com\/arizona\/experiences\/equine\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/sparkvisionnow.us13.list-manage.com\/track\/click?u%3D5d0a4840c5dd6be7963fa35c3%26id%3Dac2d72738a%26e%3D7aba713a2e&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1771353672136000&amp;usg=AOvVaw2lB7E8ywNcSY-LgUS2dW8Y\">Miraval<\/a>\u00a0(my seasonal on-call role as an equine facilitator), and the second my colleague asked me if I was okay, it was the endgame for me.<\/p>\n<p>Tears poured out of my eyes, and I mustered,\u00a0<em>\u201cNo, I&#8217;m not okay. Moving through some trauma this morning. And I&#8217;m feeling overwhelmed.\u201d\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p>She responded:<br \/>\n<em>\u201cI&#8217;m so sorry. Do you need anything?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The old me would have immediately said something like,\u00a0<em>\u201cI&#8217;ll be okay. I just need time. Sorry for being like this. If I seem off today, now you know why.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>But I had decided that in the final moments of the Year of the Snake \ud83d\udc0d, I wasn&#8217;t going to hold on to parts of me that don&#8217;t serve me. I had to shed that shit if I ever wanted to change.<\/p>\n<h4>So for the first time in my life, I said to a colleague,\u00a0<em>\u201cI could really use a hug.\u201d<\/em><\/h4>\n<p>Within seconds, she held me while I wept in her arms. Without prompting, she told me I am a kind, worthy, lovable person.<\/p>\n<p>When my other colleague walked in on us, he asked what was up. A simple,\u00a0<em>\u201cfamily trauma flare-up\u201d<\/em>\u00a0was all I had to say to be completely understood and supported.<\/p>\n<p>Shedding the old stories that were hammered into me like it&#8217;s\u2026<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\u26d4\u2026inappropriate to cry at work<\/li>\n<li>\u26d4\u2026unprofessional of me to bring my personal issues up<\/li>\n<li>\u26d4\u2026making people uncomfortable with my sensitivity<\/li>\n<li>\u26d4\u2026too emotional, and I was being a crybaby<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>When I embraced the SHED, it allowed me to look at my patterns. Because, let&#8217;s be real: family trauma flare-ups are \u201cnormal\u201d for me\u2026my whole life. But I didn\u2019t have to act like the same person anymore.<\/p>\n<p>I noticed how I&#8217;d protect my hell in the past.<\/p>\n<p>Like: isolating myself in depression, ruminating on my trauma history, suppressing my basic needs, and suffering silently &#8211; hoping someone would read my mind and save me.<\/p>\n<h4>It felt so damn good to say,\u00a0<em>\u201cF!
