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.
