THE FEELINGS WHEEL
(from BEAM)
BEAM (Black Emotional and Mental Health Collective) developed and shared this tool with a range of emotions to help us identify how we’re feeling in the moment, at a moment in the past, or when we think about a potential or future event.
Download, print, or share the PDF to use when you need help finding the right feeling.
