Episode 5 - Practices to Get Good at Feeling

Martin and Ricardo discuss some practices to get good at feeling. They mention the need for feedback and how having someone to practice with can help improve accepting and understanding emotions. They emphasize the importance of understanding one's own needs and how they relate to relationships and communicating our feelings. The speakers mention Marshall Rosenberg's Nonviolent Communication and how it helps translate the language of right and wrong to the language of feelings and needs.  They also discuss the impact of societal norms that tend to deny and distract from uncomfortable feelings. Overall, the speakers advocate for learning to notice the habit of avoiding and resisting our feelings and moving to acknowledging and accepting emotions as a first step towards improving emotional well-being.
