Transcript:
"My kids both sleep with noise machines in their rooms, maybe you do too. In fact we all turn up some kind of noise to drown out the things we don't want to hear... or FEEL.
When we feel overwhelmed, afraid, disappointed, or inadequate, we turn up the distraction... we organize the files on the computer for no reason, binge TV, consume alcohol... Anything to avoid dealing with the emotions we don't want to feel.
But being an emotionally healthy person requires processing those thoughts with awareness. Clay Scroggins says “Any time we mask our emotions we're missing an opportunity to grow & become a better version of ourselves.”
What kind of noise do YOU have your finger on the volume dial of? Happy Monday!"
