Dealing with Emotions. A holistic view from outside the box.
The solution to negative emotion lies in the consciousness of the body feeling it.
Negative emotions are a mystery to many. They seem to just come out of nowhere and for a moment we become puppets while reason takes a back seat. Whether your dealing with Marriage break up, losing a loved one or searching for ways to reduce or overcome the stress of feeling negative, you'll find this information valuable and interesting. Wikipedia defines emotion/s as:
• a neural impulse that moves an organism to action, prompting automatic reactive behavior...
• physical expressions, often involuntary, related to feelings, perceptions or beliefs about elements, objects or relations between them, in reality or in the imagination.
• mental states that arise spontaneously, rather than through conscious effort.
While it’s true that emotions are automatic, it’s amazing how we distance ourselves from the system of our consciousness that does the automating. There’s a real power there. Why aren’t we learning more about it? The way we’ve been approaching them (including phobias) has been limited by a perception that we are separate from them. ie. That “I” am overcome by “them”. Yet I am also my body; the very same biological matter engaging unconsciously in the biochemical expression of the very emotions I am objecting to. The situations would seem (subjectively) that 'I am at the effect of something within me, over which I perceive I have no control'. Also, there is a tendency to just leave it all there and live as a victim (which is often a drama of the disempowered perception), but consider something outside the box for a moment.
If people come along and press my buttons.
• How is it that I am providing a button to be pressed?
• Is there an intelligence behind this inner automation?
• Are we in fact sending ourselves a message each time we have a negative feeling?
I believe we are.
One fundamental key to understanding the relationship between mind and emotion is this: You can not have an emotion without first having a belief about a situation. Ie. you’ve got to be ‘angry about something’. With anger, You must first project an expectation or condition (unconsciously) which if not met, triggers your own displeasure.
All the following emotions have underlying beliefs (learned unconsciously at a youg age) which generate the resulting feeling. Feelings affect every decision we make. Anger Fear Sadness Resentment Hurt Guilt
Other feelings unconsciously driven by our beliefs include those connected to our sense of:
Self worth Acceptance Belonging Empowerment What is real Possibility to name just a few.
While how we feel affects what we do, holistically we are a flow of energy, and emotions are expressions of this energy. They are our personal barometer, an instrument we can use to tell us if we are ‘on track’ with our greater purpose of living. So what is our greater purpose? I believe this is oneness. A wholistic inner harmony with all that we are. The energy of each emotion certainly lets us know that there is more to us than we have been taught.
SIDE NOTE: Energy is an invisible process containing information which acts non-locally (everywhere & every-when). Energy can not become non-energy, it may only transform. The amount of energy in any system remains constant - you can not get rid of energy but you may change it.
Energy in motion. Emotion is a feedback loop which gives you a balance check on yourself. If something is out of balance in a particular context within your beliefs, it registers disharmony. We do our best to cope or manage the emotion while feeling it’s presence, yet struggle against the inner feelings because that’s all we’ve learned to do.
But the technology of the mind has advanced and it has done so beyond the walls of our educational institutions. It is now possible to change beliefs and negative e-motion very quickly in a lasting measurable way. The Breakthrough sessions give you ways to do this effectively.
In the meantime, when a negative e-motion arises,
• Own it. Look at your beliefs and
• Ask: What must I be buying into, in order for me to feel this way?
• Release old judjements.
• Ask: What would I prefer to feel instead?
• What belief could I choose now that would support this to occur?
• Then step into that idea.
Some experts say it’s healthy to be a little angry, a little fearful. Everything is ok when it’s just ‘a little’. But out beyond ‘fight or flight’, when a little becomes a lot and brief moments become frequent events, the joy and quality of life is effected and we seem powerless to make a change that brings joy back. But contrary to old beliefs, you do have the power to change negative emotion and evidence suggests they aren’t that healthy after all.
I believe we are designed to exist in a state of joy and excitement. I also believe that world change happens one person at a time. Become a demonstration of the difference you want to see. Negative emotions show us what we need to know or learn so we can grow the joyous state within us more and more.
The solution to a negative emotion always lies in the consciousness of the body feeling it. That's outside the box sure but maybe it's a difference that makes a difference.
It’s time to get wise indeed.
