Permission to Feel – Honoring the Eb and Flow of Your Emotions

Updated: May 13

Is it normal to cry after yoga? I did. It felt like an unofficial release ceremony I didn’t even know I needed.


That moment on my mat was like a wave, a sudden awareness of everything I had been holding in my body, my mind, and my heart. At first, my mind tried to analyze it – to make sense of the emotions rising to the surface – but my heart whispered, “This is what we need right now. This is what’s happening. It’s okay to cry. It’s okay not to be okay.”


Be present.


This month, I made the decision to pour into myself a little more. I needed a reset. If I’m honest, I’ve felt this way for a while but kept pushing it aside because I had goals I wanted to meet. Of course, I know better than to neglect my own needs, but I didn’t do better. I didn’t practice what I preach, and I want to be transparent about that.


Choosing to Be Real


We get so caught up in appearances, in looking like we have it all together, that we forget it’s okay to fall short, to need help, to not function at our best all the time. I get it – no one wants to appear weak. But it’s not okay to suffer in silence, either.


We all have challenges. Some of us are more vocal about where we are, while others choose to hide, but the struggles are still there. And if we can’t be truthful with ourselves about where we are, we can’t attract real connections, build meaningful intimacy, or fully heal.


Letting Go of the Armor


I’m in a space now where I care less about appearances. I’m more interested in being around people who are serious about facing their shadows, healing their hurts, and moving beyond the past without shame or excuses. I want to be supported and surrounded by those who are committed to doing their inner work, even when it’s uncomfortable.


Today reminded me that every moment isn’t golden, and that’s okay. I might break down and cry, but as long as I can get back up, all is well.


So, check in with yourself. Check on your strong friend. Be grateful for the chance to try again. Know that you are deserving of love and care, not just when you’re at your best, but also when you feel like you’re falling apart.


And so it is.




Reflect and Journal


  • What emotions have you been holding back or suppressing?

  • When was the last time you truly gave yourself permission to feel – without judgment or apology?

  • How can you create more space in your life for emotional release and self-acceptance?

  • What would it feel like to let go of the need to always be “strong” and allow yourself to just be?



Take a deep breath. You are worthy of softness.


With love,

Anusa ✨
