Cry it out

Posting this to remind all of my emotional gals that it's ok to let those tears loose and that I hope you feel better after🫶🏻🥲

2024/1/27 Edited to

... Read moreCrying is a natural and healthy emotional release that can be beneficial for mental wellness. Allowing yourself to cry can serve as a cathartic experience, helping to relieve stress and tension. Research suggests that tears can even contain stress hormones, and crying can act as a mechanism for regulating emotional responses. It's essential to acknowledge our emotions rather than suppress them, fostering a more adaptive coping strategy. Remember, every emotional individual deserves to express their feelings authentically. So, the next time you feel overwhelmed, don't hesitate to show those tears; they're part of your journey to healing and self-discovery.

Italians don’t cry over onions. They cut smarter.
Think an onion is just an onion? Not in Italian cooking and definitely not if you want flavor, texture, and tears that are worth it. In Italy, the way you slice an onion can change your entire dish — from a delicate soffritto to a rich caramelized base. Cut it wrong and your risotto gets bitter
