I am so out of touch with my emotions, probably because I have a habit of trying to suppress them but also because I feel I can't turn off my brain... For me, emotions must be analyzed, not felt. I don't know how to simply sit, and feel, and discover truth that way... Meditations like this help me but I still feel like it will take me awhile to develop this skill of allowing myself to feel what I am feeling.
I can label emotions such as happy, sad, fear etc but what about when you feel traumatised and it lingers for a while? What emotion is trauma? How do you label it?

What do we do after labeling these emotions?
