Brené Brown's newest book Atlas of the Heart is like a guidebook for all the feels you never knew you had. Imagine having a map that shows you all the different emotions you experience—because let’s face it, #feelings can be confusing. Each chapter takes a closer look at emotions like anger, sadness, and joy, breaking them down so they’re easier to understand. Brené mixes in a bit of science with stories that make you go, “Oh, I totally get that!”
What’s really cool about Atlas of the Heart is how it shakes up the idea that emotions are just “good” or “bad.” Brené points out that feelings aren’t black and white; they’re more like a rainbow of shades. For instance, guilt and shame might seem like the bad guys, but they can actually help us grow if we learn from them. And then there are emotions like gratitude and joy that often hang out together, making life a bit brighter.
At the end of the day, Atlas of the Heart reminds us that emotions are a mixed bag, and that’s okay. Every feeling, whether it’s a happy one or a tough one, plays a role in our mental health. By getting better at naming and understanding our emotions, we can make peace with them, leading to stronger connections with ourselves and the people around us. So next time you’re feeling all the feels, remember—you’ve got the whole spectrum to explore!
