Sharing emotions is good, but listening is also required. Expressing our emotions to loved ones is a natural response to feeling stressed. In fact, we share our feelings with others for a number of reasons: to bond with others, to be comforted or to seek advice. Sharing our feelings with others can help us get a handle on our emotions. But it’s not just the act of disclosing emotions that helps us feel better. Having a listening partner who is emotionally responsive and “gets it” is key. #mentalhealth #listentoyourheart #partnerforlife #listening #listenerofheart #yourquotebaba
