    Mapping Emotions

    “Emotions have both a mental and a physical component” (Chen, 2019, p. 34). Recognizing them can be
    the path towards self-acceptance and self-compassion.

    Use this worksheet to direct attention to bodily experiences of emotion to reach a greater acceptance of
    feelings.

    Complete the following:

    Think of the last time you were angry with someone you cared about and how it felt physically.

    What was the situation, and who were you angry with?

    Where did you feel the emotion in your body? For example, shoulders, chest, stomach, etc.

    Think of a shape or color that best reflects that feeling. For example, a heavy red ball in my stomach.

    With your eyes closed, think back to that time and your feelings with curiosity and self-compassion.
    Accept that such feelings happen but that you remain in control.

    Try and imagine the shape or object slowly dissolving, all color and weight leaving.
