The Feelings Wheel

Big feelings? Start here.

Our Feelings Wheel is the tool you reach for when you’re overwhelmed, shut down, or just plain don’t know what is going on inside you. Because naming your feelings isn’t always easy, especially when your brain is buffering and your nervous system is fried.

Backed by research and shaped like a six-petaled flower (because healing can be soft and structured), this best-seller helps you move from vague to specific. “Bad” becomes “disappointed.” “Fine” becomes “unseen.” You get the idea. It’s emotional clarity, without needing a therapy degree.

Printed on durable, bendable laminate (just like your capacity for hard things), it’s made to be tossed in your bag, fidgeted with in the Costco parking lot, or handed to your therapist mid-sob. It’s the feelings tool you didn’t know you needed… until now of course.

How it Works

Step 01

find your base emotion

Each petal on The Feelings Wheel represents a base emotion. Find the base that you feel best represents your current emotional state.

Step 02

narrow it down

On the same petal, look at the first row of words. As you read through the word bank, identify which one seems most accurate with the emotion you are experiencing.

Step 03

get specific

As you go up to the second row, you’ll be able to choose between more specific variations of emotions. You may have an 'ah-ha' moment when you find a word to accurately describe how you’re feeling.

After identifying your specific emotion, be sure to reflect on it. A couple options for processing this could include journaling about the feeling, talking with a friend, or taking notes to bring to your next therapy session.

It's beautifully designed, easy to understand, and has helped me and those around me (my clients!) put words to complex emotions. Whether for personal growth, therapy, or just everyday check-ins, this wheel is a must-have. Highly recommend!

An Essential Tool for Emotional Awareness and Expression in Therapy

As a licensed marriage and family therapist, I’ve found the Feelings Wheel by Feelings Found to be an incredibly valuable tool in my practice. Its clear, visual structure makes it easy for clients to identify and articulate their emotions, which is often a difficult task for many. The wheel breaks down emotions into primary, secondary, and tertiary categories, allowing clients to move from general feelings to more specific ones. This helps foster emotional awareness, making it easier for clients to understand their emotional experiences and express them in a way that feels more manageable. It’s especially helpful for clients who struggle with emotional avoidance or dysregulation, providing them with a concrete tool to process their feelings.

What I appreciate most about the Feelings Wheel is its versatility and usefulness across various therapeutic approaches, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy, emotion-focused therapy, and couples therapy. Whether used to kickstart a session, facilitate emotional regulation, or support journaling exercises, it enhances both individual and relational work. It’s a fantastic resource that helps clients build emotional intelligence, fosters better communication in relationships, and deepens self-awareness. I highly recommend the Feelings Wheel to fellow clinicians looking for a practical, accessible, and powerful tool to help clients explore and express their emotions.
