Holding these paradoxes with warmth and curiosity will help you on your journey to discovering and celebrating the terrain(physical landscape) of your own heart. Like any journey worth taking, there are no shortcuts. You’ll need to clamber (climb with difficulty) over many obstacles(setbacks), and find your sharp edges. Keep going. Lean into the messy stuff and contradictory stuff. Embrace the sheer vulnerability of being alive.

Final summary

Emotional granularity means being able to identify our emotions and experiences and express them to other people. The more nuanced and specific the words are that we have for emotions, the more expansive(broad) our inner worlds will be. Becoming attuned to our emotional states allows us to build loving relationships with ourselves, and the people around us.

And here’s some more actionable advice:

Take a time-out when you’re overwhelmed. If you feel flooded by emotions like fear or anger, the rational part of your brain shuts down. That’s not a great state to be in during a fight, or in a situation where you need to make a decision. Build time-outs(breaks) into your communication with people you love. When you’re overwhelmed, take some time by yourself to breathe deeply and process. When you’re feeling calmer, you can pick up where you left off.
