Struggling With A Feeling? Unwelcome Party Guest - Dr Julie #shorts

if you're struggling with a feeling you

don't want to have and you keep trying

to make it go away i want you to imagine

for a moment that this is you and this

is your neighbor let's call him darth he

represents all those feelings you wish

would just disappear you don't like

darth nobody likes staff one day you

decide to throw a big party but then

darth turns up you don't want him to be

here so you decide to make him leave but

the problem is every time you do that he

comes straight back in so you decide to

stand guard at the door all night now

that works to keep him out but you're

missing out on this party so what if

instead you decide to go back to the

party and tell yourself if darth comes

back you're gonna allow him to be

present darth does come back he's still

annoying you would still prefer he

wasn't there but once you stop trying to

control him you can use your energy to

focus on what matters to you so if

you're spending all your effort blocking

out an emotion that won't go away ask

yourself what is it causing you to miss

out on
