If you're going through a difficult time, identifying your feelings can be very important. You need to understand how your mind and body are communicating with each other, and you need to take notice of those messages. By doing this, you can then find out what the problem is that is causing you distress. Once you have a better understanding of your feelings, you can begin to address the problem.

Often times people confuse identification with observation. While both can be important, they are very different. While observation can be useful in learning more about a situation, it is not as concrete and true as identifying. When you are feeling particularly distressed, you are more likely to feel compelled to try to get an objective and honest opinion rather than relying on your own feelings.

When feelings take control instead of thoughts, it's usually because of the situation that draws them on. For example, if you have anger issues and you're worried about a job interview, you are likely to tell yourself that you are "not going to let it happen." As you worry about the situation, you may start to get very mixed feelings about it. You may feel anger for the situation, but also have feelings of regret and humiliation.

As you are focusing on identifying the emotions you have, you can see where these emotions are leading you. By focusing on your feelings rather than on your thoughts, you can get more insight about what is going on in your body. This is a big benefit. Not only does it help you with decision making, but it can help you heal from physical injuries as well. Here are some examples:

When you are feeling angry, you often physically shake. This action, accompanied by thoughts of anger, causes you to create more tension and stress. When you focus on identifying the shaking and the tension that accompany it, you can release negative energy from your body. You may even release negative emotions such as fear. This is because the anger leads to negative feelings. When you focus on releasing these feelings instead of focusing on the negative action, you can begin the healing process.

When you are in pain, you may put pressure on muscles that hurt. For instance, if you have sore muscles, you may be tempted to lay your hands on something in order to alleviate the pain. However, when you focus on identifying the pain and putting a little pressure on it, you can release the tension. This action will lead to a decrease in pain, as well as the release of the tension that accompanies it.

Perhaps you have been carrying a lot of emotional weight recently. As you have been carrying this weight, you may have been unable to focus on anything else. If so, it may be easier to let go of the weight and lessen the strain associated with it. When you focus on identifying the stresses in your life, you will let go of emotional stress, which leads to physical and emotional pain.

It is important to identify your feelings at any given moment. If you are uncertain about your feelings, you need to clarify them. This will help you let go of the stress associated with them. However, you also need to remain aware that you might not be able to get clear emotions when you are experiencing certain stresses. By using this technique, you will be better prepared for dealing with these types of situations in the future.
