Emotional Baggage

The term “emotional baggage” refers to unfinished emotional issues, stressors, pain, and difficulties we've experienced that continue to take up space in our minds and affect our present relationships.

Common forms of emotional baggage include low self-esteem, perfectionism, fear of failure, fear of intimacy, self-criticism, just to name a few.

Learn to notice the emotion and allow yourself time to breathe slowly through it, noticing it touching the physical area where it hurts. Acknowledge the pain and then remind yourself that you will get through this.

Don't do this alone, there are many avenues available, Friends, Family and local Clergy.
