Most feelings arrive mixed, two or three at once, which is exactly why putting a name to one helps so much. NERVOUS and HOPEFUL often turn up together before something big. GRATEFUL, CURIOUS, GRUMPY, BRAVE. The grid is a small vocabulary for the things going on inside.

Frequently asked questions
Is this different from an emotions puzzle?
It leans toward the everyday feelings people name most often, rather than the heavier or more clinical terms, which makes it friendly for younger solvers.
Why does naming a feeling help?
Putting the right word to something makes it easier to think about and easier to talk about, which is most of the battle.
