Our basic emotions are the ones we’re born with. They show up in every person regardless of their specific socialization. Even though different cultures teach us how to behave, how to deal with and how to express our feelings – these basic emotions are portrayed with the same facial expressions all over the world.
Which emotion are you the most familiar with? Which are you enjoying, which gives you a hard time? All emotions have their reason and legitimacy. Every time you feel something it’s a sign that your needs are or aren’t met. Watch out for those signs and ask others for what you need in that moment; or love yourself and take those needs to fulfill them on your own.
