De: Jennie Allen

Narrado por: Jennie Allen

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The author of Get Out of Your Head provides a revolutionary path to embracing a healthy relationship with your emotions, one that leads to life-giving connection with God and others as well as to a richer understanding of yourself.

“This book is worth thousands of dollars of counseling.”—Jonathan Pokluda, bestselling author and host of the Becoming Something podcast

How often have you heard, “Don’t let your emotions get the best of you”? But what if instead of ignoring our feelings, we noticed them, named them, and let God use them to draw us closer to Himself and others?

Many of us need to unlearn damaging messages about our emotions. We’ve been taught, for example, that emotions are untrustworthy, when, in fact, God can use them to help us see where we need His healing.

In Untangle Your Emotions, Jennie Allen uses scientific research, biblical insight, and her own story to help you

● exchange stuffing, dismissing, or minimizing your emotions for a five-step process to know what you feel and what to do about it

● debunk the myth that feelings are sinful by learning how emotional maturity leads to deeper connection with God and others

● live emotionally healthy by applying biblical wisdom and therapeutic research that works whether you self-identify as “emotional” or not

● sit with feelings that are confusing and painful by discovering the depth of God’s love and compassion for you

Feelings aren’t something to fix; they are something to feel. As we discover how to name and navigate our emotions, we’ll learn how they can draw us closer to the God who built us—soul, mind, and heart.

So helpful!

At first I wondered if I would truly learn anything significant enough. Well that was prideful! This was so helpful.
Also it’s a book I listened to mostly when driving and it wasn’t so intense that it distracted me while driving yet intriguing enough to keep me going.

Great read

So helpful as a person who has always been very emotional it really helped me understand and not feel bad for having all the feelings

Excellent book

I absolutely love this book. I’m gonna recommend it to all my friends and anyone that I see is struggling with their emotions. learning to feel my feelings after so many years of not trusting them is a new challenge.

Love it!

Love everything about this book! So helpful and honest. It was one of my favorites by the author.

Good listen

This book has several nuggets in it that are very good. Especially if you are trying to work through some childhood trauma or difficulties.

Story time: I sat by a girl on a plane who was reading this book. I had never heard of it before but I'm always looking for what people are reading. She was so sweet and I wished that I had given her a track that gave the message of the Gospel. But she was off the plane before I could find one. Later on, I was browsing Christian audiobooks and realized this was that book! So, it assured me that that girl was already a believer. So, I decided to get it.

Speaks the truth

This book was spot on about feelings and how I have dealt or not dealt with my feelings. It was all very real and easy to relate too. Definitely got me thinking about how and why I react to my feelings. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

Buy it!! I dare you!

Grab some girls willing to do the work with you and start listening/reading. You will thank yourself for taking a chance on you!!. Give yourself grace as you learn about yourself and how to put into words what you really feel. Just the simple tool- I feel- has changed my inner dialogue and taken the crazy of my mind and helped to mellow it. I’ve learned a lot about myself by listening to other ladies speak from the heart. Thank you Jennie for sharing so much about yourself life and family. I truly pray my daughters and I have the relationship like you do with yours. 💕

Good

Reminds us that God gave us our emotions. This was the best book discussion in our Christian bookclub.
