Empowering/Disempowering Emotions

Why - Purpose

To understand the positive and negative emotions that drive human beings to do what they do.

What - Definition

Emotions are the dynamic currents of energy that propel our journey through life. They shape our choices, sparking action or inertia. No force has a greater influence on your present state—or your ability to manifest your highest vision—than the energetic patterns of emotion you engage with. These currents can either amplify your power and expansion or deplete your vitality and momentum.

Authenticity is key: if we don’t acknowledge our emotional landscape, we lose the ability to recalibrate the patterns that hold us back. Despite a vast emotional lexicon of over 4,000 words in the English language, most individuals cycle through fewer than a dozen distinct emotions in a given week. To unlock your potential, become aware of the emotional frequencies you resonate with most—both those that uplift and those that contract your energy.

Questions

and Activities

Questions

  • Emotions are when our Spirit and Body come closest to being one.
    • What sensation are you feeling?
    • What are the ingredients for this "sensation"?
    • What is the positive intent behind this emotion?
    • Are you interpreting the emotional energy as "Anger" when maybe it's pure "Passion" and is actually an empowering Signal.
  • What emotional frequencies do you find yourself tuning into most often throughout the week?
  • Which of these emotions elevate, energize, and expand your potential?
  • Which emotions feel like they drain, limit, or contract your energy?
  • Between these two energetic states, which dominates your inner world?
  • Where does your emotional compass naturally point?
  • What would love do?
  • Does this action help me expand or contract my heart?

Activity

  • Close your eyes, tune into your heart, sense other people’s energy.
  • Pause for a moment and feel into the emotion. Allow the emotional energy to be loved and to flow. Honor the intelligence within the emotion.
  • Play some music, do a physical activity like boxing, running or walking, talk to a friend, celebrate joy in your life... allow the emotional energy to shift and transform.
  • 🌀 Transcend the Trance: Many people live on autopilot, conditioned by cultural expectations. Waking up from this trance allows us to align with our true selves.
  • ⚖️ Conflict Between True Self and Expectations: The inner conflict between how we feel and how we think, can be resolved by acknowledging the truth of who we really are.

💡
While working with a client who felt extremely disempowered by some emotions, I taught him to see emotions as signals giving him direction on how to take action in his life. Not simply an experience that is acting upon you... because when you feel like the object and emotions are in control you are disempowered.

When you feel like an "AGENT" with the power to act and shape and channel those emotional energies into useful practices and actions you can change your world.
