Hi love,
Today is all about spotting and naming what you feel -- not in essays, not in stories, just the dominant emotion.
Alright darling, slide in close, Auntie’s about to peek behind the velvet curtain of your feelings. Today we’re naming what your body’s been whispering all week, and yes… even if it’s messy.
Extra Auntie points if you name it like a guest:
“Not today, Gerald (‘restless’). Sit. Be still.”
Day 2 Activation → The One-Word Drop-In
- Pause three times today: Morning. Midday. Evening.
- Ask: “What’s the dominant emotion in my body right now?”
Examples:
- Irritated
- Restless
- Hopeful
- Anxious
- Spicy (yes, valid — you know who you are)
Why this works (Auntie Science):
- Shifts activity to the frontal cortex (the brain)
- Reduces emotional intensity
- Builds emotional literacy
- Stops chaos before it starts
Tomorrow: M — Micro-Command, your brain’s new steering wheel.
Auntie 💋
