Feelings when our needs are met
These feelings tend to show up when something we need is present — connection, rest, meaning, safety.
Feelings when our needs are not met
These feelings point to a need asking for attention. They are information, not a problem.
Universal human needs
Needs are shared by everyone, everywhere. Strategies to meet them differ; the needs themselves do not.
