Inside Out 2 is a Must Do!

I always love a good recommendation and today I am giving one to you! Inside Out 2 is a must do!  Inside Out, the first one, was about a girl named Riley and her brain and emotions.  In this film we become acquainted with Joy, Sadness, Anger, Fear, and Disgust as Riley experiences a move, making new friends, and the ups and downs that come with that.  In Inside Out 2, Riley has matured to a teenager and puberty enters the building along with the emotions of Anxiety, Envy, Embarrassment, and Ennui (boredom in French).  In this movie we learn all about these new emotions and learn how Anxiety can wreak some havoc when left unchecked.   Some of the main takeaways that I learned and loved were: Fear and Anxiety are friends. They are companions.   Anxiety can cause us to bottle up other emotions and leave us unable to feel anything else. Anxiety can cause us to behave in ways that don't align with our values and how we want to behave. JOY keeps Anxiety and the other emotions in check. She is the path to peace! Do more of what help you feel JOY! There were so many other lessons to take away from this film that really hit home for me! If you need a good summer flick, this one is a MUST!
