Feeling better isn't something you can just do.
It's not instant or automatic or easy.
It's a process: something you have to learn and commit to and practice.
It's work.
The work begins with figuring out your feelings: looking inside yourself, getting to know your vibrant and changing landscape, learning to notice and recognise and name everything you encounter.
