Dancing in darkness and solitude

A dear friend of mine posted something the other day that tickled a memory of another blog I had read a long time ago, but this was in fact years not months/days and I have no clue where to find it🤣. 

So I was wondering if anyone here had any suggestions, info or insights into the topic that could help us learn and explore it more.

 

Now I’m sure it’s not exclusive to little/middles at all but this was related to one specifically at the time (and would be used by some in future).

 

A color chart that breaks down words and emotions when the submissive is feeling too overwhelmed and cannot communicate properly.

 

Oftentimes when someone is in a deeply emotional place, overwhelmed or even extremely excited they lose their words, get jumbled up in what they’re trying to express/communicate or can become tongue tied by nerves and often crippling doubt.

This can also be known as word salad (where everything is just jumbled up inside and you know what you want to say but it comes out incoherently when you try to communicate it verbally).

 

Many times this is connected to triggers, trauma and situations where the person has been injured, hurt or been put into survival mode for long periods of time/similar situations.

 

Below is a vague recollection of what the post/blog described:

A circular chart, with base colors as the initial layer or starting point. This then has a words associated with it, and is broken down into similar words and more colors, which lead to descriptions of emotions or pictures if needed to convey the message one is trying to get across.

If anyone has any experience with this, insight or thoughts would love to hear it.

Better yet if anyone has any recommendations on how to get my hands on this kind of thing that would be even better thank you so much 🫶❤️

Rainbow bubbles and love to all, may it be a beautiful day ahead!

Sounds like an emotion wheel or feelings wheel. The psychologist Plutchik developed the concept. You can find them all over the place now. Some people have added images, but the original I think was just text.

The colors are so eye-catching. It is a very insightful tool.

Blondie​(sub female){Collared} - I have never heard of this. I tend to have “word salad” and freeze up when I get upset. This could be a very helpful tool!

lambsone - Amor, I sent this link to the head of the Counseling and Art Therapy Dept. At Ursuline College in Pepper Pike, OH. When I did one year of Grad School there, this never came up so I asked her if she had ever seen it before. I'm awaiting her answer. If she hasn't I hope she shares it with the students.
