The Lost Emotions

A Map Back to What We Forgot to Feel
by Gaurav Arya

What if the emotions you've been missing... were never truly lost-just unnamed?

In a fast world addicted to productivity and performance, we've grown emotionally flat. We know stress. We know anxiety. But what about sonder-the awe of realizing every stranger has a story? Or saudade-the bittersweet ache of missing something that may never return?

"The Lost Emotions" is a poetic and soul-stirring journey through the subtle emotional states we once felt, but no longer name. Borrowed from languages around the world, each chapter reawakens a forgotten feeling-blending philosophy, psychology, and reflective journaling.

Inside, you'll discover:

10 rare emotions including Sehnsucht, Amae, Ubuntu, and Frisson

The origins and meanings of each feeling

Short essays, personal reflection prompts, and sensory practices

Mini-affirmations to reconnect with depth, softness, and wonder

A compassionate invitation to feel more fully in a world that asks us to feel less

This book is not therapy. It's not academic. It's emotional archaeology-a quiet guide for anyone who has ever said:
"I miss something... but I don't know what."
