Curated by the Gottman Institute, and drawn by Self Love Rainbow (formerly Blessing Manifesting), this is an excellent resource for relationships as well
- What Emotions Feel Like in The Body
You are more than happy, sad or numb. This wheel of emotions by Lindsay Brahman helps us identify what we are truly feeling. Work outward in, and trace your behaviour to your emotion.
