Our emotions are our GPS system

Most of us are cut off from our emotions. We were taught not to feel them, to avoid 'negative' emotions. The reasons and explanations for this don't matter as much as deciding now to tune back into our internal guidance systems. If you feel lost or stuck a quick way to get un-stuck is to stop numbing yourself long enough to let your emotions flow. The other day I was feeling uncomfortable, nauseous actually, I laid down and let myself be nauseous, I let it come over me, and then I started to cry. What I had stuffed down began to move and I felt immediate relief! Relief is a good sign of healing and growth!! An emotion is a reaction to a thought. Here's how it works: you have a thought, then your body reacts with an emotion, if the emotion 'feels good' that means the thought is in alignment with your true desire and it would serve your highest good to follow the thought and put it into appropriate action. If you have an emotional reaction that 'feels bad' (tight, constricted, sick) this thought is not in alignment with your desire or highest good. It's likely rooted in fear. If we live in fear we'll never fulfill our soul's purpose!! Probably best then to explore the thought, the belief, dance, draw, cry, or just release into stillness and follow the emotion. Follow your thoughts and emotions that make you feel good!!! This is your true path. I love exploring thoughts, emotions and beliefs.
