Curated by Anna Linder

Publisher: Anna Linder; 1st edition (Sept. 27 2018)

The Book of Emotions: Or how it feels to feel, was designed and compiled in 2018, by graphic designer, Anna Linder. She created the idea of an emotional directory and invited authors to participate in the, ‘how it feels to feel’, project by submitting works that reflected a journey of the definition of what an emotion felt like to them.

Fifteen writers open-heartedly share their experiences and perspectives on anger, freedom, support, vulnerability, hope, shame, peace, fear, joy, grief, courage, homecoming, and the language of emotions. This is not about how and why we lose our feelings. This is an invitation to relearn, reconnect, and recognize our feelings. The Book of Emotions is a guide back to your true self.

Patricia answered the call and submitted articles about the emotions of Support, Peace, Fear, Joy, and Courage, believing the book would be a great resource for those struggling with different emotions during difficult times in their lives. Patricia explains, “It took courage to delve into how I felt each emotion as I journeyed into past conflicts, joys, and triumphs throughout my life.”
