The Danger of Believing Everything You Feel | Alan Watts

Описание: Are you mistaking every feeling for truth? In this profound lesson inspired by Alan Watts, we explore a life-changing shift: feelings are signals, not sentences. When fear, guilt, anger, or sudden euphoria get treated as hard facts, we obey moods like laws—and lose our clarity. Discover how to recognize the silent awareness behind every emotion, so you can honor what you feel without becoming it.
This lesson breaks down:
feelings ≠ facts: why the nervous system sometimes labels uncertainty as danger
Sensation vs. story: separating raw emotion from the narrative your mind adds
We are (effortless action): responding skillfully instead of overreacting or suppressing
The pause that protects peace: a simple practice — Name it → Feel it → Decide later
Intuition after the wave: how true guidance emerges once the storm settles
This is a complete guide to keeping your center when emotions are loud—so you can act from calm, protect your peace, and live with steadiness and wisdom.
