Original Advice
“DO: Name the feeling before reacting.”
Name It Before It Burns
Your mood is a riptide. When you don't name it, it drives your mouth, your thumbs, your night. You blame the room, the weather, the moon, but it's anger at 2 a.m., grief pretending to be hunger, fear dressed as sarcasm. Say the word. Out loud. Before the text. Before the slam. Precision beats the spiral. Call it, or it will call the shots.
Naming is containment. Language shrinks the tidal wave into a cup you can set down. When you say "jealous," you stop inventing enemies. When you say "lonely," you stop scrolling for proof. The word builds a gate between you and the impulse. Then choose: breathe, eat, leave, ask, cry. Reaction becomes response. You stay in your body instead of the storm.
Cosmic Context
You are lunar tide in a shell. The Moon swings your waters; naming keeps the home dry and the claws useful.
