We come to this material world and design the "emotion" mechanism in order to bring us a large and broad experience of the material layer through the interaction between emotions and beliefs. This is the core goal of the soul coming to the material world: " Get more of the experience you want”
How do emotions and beliefs interact? If an event occurs, and if this event is related to our beliefs, it will immediately trigger an emotional reaction. If there are similar experiences and recorded emotions in the past, they will also join the reaction, and our whole body and mind will be involved. The reason events that conflict with our own beliefs cause emotions is because the belief is inconsistent with the frequency of our true existence. Simply put, the belief is not true for us.
So every time an emotion occurs, it carries a lot of information and reminders. The emotion itself is neutral, and our feelings bring positive and negative distinctions. Negative emotional feelings help us understand which limiting beliefs are no longer suitable; positive Emotional feelings help us see what we are passionate about and resonate with; this involves the journey towards the goal of life, by doing things large and small that make us happy, and letting go of the obstacles of limiting beliefs. You can move forward all the way and reach where your soul originally wanted to go.
In the following article, we will describe the details of the above excerpt in more depth, including why emotions occur, their significance, and how to face them, release and heal them. Although the article is long, it is based on our experience of more than ten years. Exploration and experience, I hope to bring more complete perspectives and inspiration to friends who come to read.
What are emotions
Emotions are the reactions of our physical bodies to various interactions in daily activities. In other words, whether we can find the words to define our current emotions or not, we are having various emotional reactions almost all the time. To understand it more broadly, , in fact, includes various sensory perceptions such as cold, heat, hunger, satiety, and pain, which are all categories of emotions.
In 1970, Paul Ekman divided emotions into six basic emotions: happiness, surprise, fear, disgust, anger, and sadness. With subsequent research, Ekman continued A lot of basic emotions have also been added, so don’t be surprised if you find information from Ekman on the Internet and why there are 7 or more.
In addition, Robert Plutchik also classified emotions into 8 emotions and divided them into four opposite groups: joy and sadness (joy-sadness), anger and fear (anger-fear), trust and disgust (trust-disgust), Surprise-anticipation. Later in 1980, he also proposed a wheel-like diagram of emotions, showing the composite emotions extended from each basic emotion. For example, the mixture of anger and disgust will bring contempt. ….wait.
The point is, you will find that emotions can be condensed into a few basic ones, or they can be mixed and extended to create more types. Therefore, classification is only a reference for thinking. What is more important is that in the following paragraphs, we will mention that emotions are in us. What role they play in life, and how we view and use emotions.
It is also mentioned in some of my favorite books that our most fundamental emotions are fear and love, and other emotions are extended from them. Our life is like a process of moving through fear and moving towards love. Love is like A space filled with light. When the light weakens to almost disappear, that is fear. They seem to be the same thing, just two sides of the same body.
There are many emotions that are rooted in the extension of fear. Their origins are almost always the process of growing up when we are defenseless and still children [note] . Therefore, in some psychological systems or healing systems, the concept of the inner child is proposed as a metaphor. The various emotions and traumas we had not dealt with when we were children, and when we grow up, through certain events, it triggers the past that was stuffed in the dark corners of our hearts like a trigger, and some similar emotional feelings become Fears of being rejected or abandoned, fears of being rejected or misunderstood, or being ignored, fears of being violated or abused physically or mentally will emerge at this time.
[Note] In addition to the emotions brought about by the experience of this current time and space, of course it also contains imprints in other time and space. It is just the emotional imprint of these other time and space. In this time and space, corresponding stories and experiences usually occur to experience it. Because you usually want to experience similar feelings again to help yourself see more. Just like a story of betrayal, there may be many unavoidable bits and pieces hidden in it.
How emotions arise
Emotion seems to be an abstract and subjective feeling, but it has corresponding mechanisms at the energy level and material level.
If you have ever observed that different people may express different emotions for the same event or experience, then you should be able to guess that the generation of emotions is mainly related to our personal beliefs, including the definition and correlation of things. It is related to Dharma, etc., which also involves the emotions and memories caused by external events brought about by these past beliefs, dormant in our physical and mental systems. When there is an external event now that is related to the defining ideas in our beliefs, It will jointly search for relevant content recorded in the memory and produce corresponding emotions at the same time. As mentioned in the previous paragraph, most of these beliefs are absorbed from our parents, teachers, and surrounding environment when we were growing up. Among them, the beliefs that cause negative emotions mean that these beliefs are out of frequency and inappropriate with the nature of our true existence. The inherent wisdom of our body and mind is aware, so under a complex mechanism, we display this discordant frequency as "emotional" feelings.
Beliefs that cause negative feelings, such as, "You must please others to be liked," or "You must be praised to prove that you are worthy," "Life is not safe if you don't work hard." wait.
There is usually a belief about "how external events must happen before I can be happy or valuable or feel safe", and of course there are more complex beliefs that interact with each other. It works and causes emotions to occur, but no matter what kind of belief it is, it means that it does not resonate with your true existence.
Emotions also have physical biochemical reactions that echo the above description in terms of physiological mechanisms. This also echoes what we mentioned in other articles at all levels of abstraction (including spiritual, inner, emotional, feeling...etc.) All statements have corresponding manifestations in the material plane. I will briefly summarize what the famous American neuroscientist Candace B. Pert described in the book "The Fantastic World of Emotional Molecules". In her research, she confirmed that emotions have two key components in the body. Each component: neuropeptide (an amino acid ligand) and emotional receptor (opiate receptor), which was a major scientific research and innovation at the time!
Receptors are like smaller sensory organs, swimming and vibrating on the surface of the cell membrane. When the ligand binds to the receptor, a resonance is generated. The receptor sends the received information from the cell surface to the deep interior, and then triggers various This kind of biochemical activity will produce a series of reactions for the body. These receptors and ligands are equivalent to "message molecules", which can be said to be the smallest unit of cellular language. They are responsible for transmitting messages throughout the physiological system. This kind of victory in conveying emotions There are many kinds of peptide ligands, and they have also been established in research as biochemical molecules of emotion. Pert even believes that this is even the basic molecular level of the mind or soul, so in the following paragraphs, we will also share when we suppress emotions or What impact will negative emotions have on us at the physical and spiritual levels?
PS. Candace B. Pert is the first scientist to find the working mechanism of abstract "emotion" in the physical body. Of course, she has also been involved in dramatic award battles and research for this pioneering work, but I regard her as The research is an abstract, mainly because the sayings about emotions she learned during spiritual exploration and her own experience coincide with the research and discussion in her book. At the same time, she herself is also because of her expertise in the field of emotions. In my research, in order to explore the truth and move toward a spiritual understanding, I propose many more comprehensive views on emotions, break out of the embarrassment of hard-core science, and make an explanation like "the core of science is spirituality." I provide here This information serves as a reference for everyone to think about. Friends who are interested in understanding more details can buy the book and read it by themselves.
The role of emotions in life
Continuing what was mentioned earlier, our emotions come from the sum of our beliefs, definitions, and combined experiences; when an event occurs, all of this will be input into your brain, and the brain will perform some comparison and filtering work with the stored information. , if this event is related to our beliefs, it will immediately trigger an emotional reaction. If there are similar experiences and recorded emotions in the past, they will also join in this reaction. To be more precise, your entire body and mind will also join in. to this reaction.
Then have you ever thought about why we came to this material world and designed such an "emotional" mechanism? Because the interaction between emotions and beliefs will bring us a large and vast experience in the material world, this is the core goal of the soul coming to the material world : "to get more desired experiences" (about the soul coming to the earth) What to do, you can read this article to get more ideas: Five Big Questions: Understanding how and why we came to the earth ), and emotions play an important role. Every emotion that occurs, in addition to bringing about a comprehensive physiological In addition to reactions, it also carries a lot of information and reminders. Negative emotions help you see which beliefs are no longer suitable for you , and which memories and traumas have been imprinted on your physical and mental systems, giving us the opportunity to make changes in beliefs. Adjustment, self-healing, and positive emotions help you see what you are passionate about and what resonates with you. What's more important is that in the process of feeling and understanding emotions, we will get to know our true selves better, and know better what we want, what is suitable or not suitable, these are the gifts that emotions bring us.
At the same time, this process involves the journey towards the goal of life. Emotions are like breadcrumbs, guiding us step by step. Through the prompts of positive emotions, we can do those things that truly feel joyful in our hearts, large and small. Through negative emotions, we can Emotions, understand those limiting beliefs that block your thinking and behavior, and then release them, so that you can move forward on the road ahead and reach where your soul originally wants to go.
If you remember that we mentioned that beliefs create reality and create external events, and then external events trigger emotions and lead us to beliefs, you will know that all of this is for ourselves to "see" , and the designed mechanism.
how to face emotions
The natural flow of emotions is a stable energy that does not have a negative impact on the body and mind. What is the natural flow of emotions? It includes one’s own seeing, acceptance and expression of emotions., for example, when you are angry, you must feel the anger truthfully, do not suppress it, accept it, and do not say to yourself: "No, I must hold it back", or "This is wrong, I shouldn't have it" Such emotions", "Oh, I am so bad, if others know that I am angry because of this, what will they think of me?"
When you can stop these conditions and criticisms first, you will be able to be more able to be with your emotions, without using any thoughts to restrict its flow, and to express your emotions naturally. This expression is not directed at people or things that make you angry. Vent, but allow yourself to express your true feelings truthfully . If you estimate that you cannot express it to others in the incident, you do not need to express it to them. You can say it to yourself, and you can write it out. You can shout into the void; of course, this expression does not necessarily have to be through words. Simply letting the emotion show itself to you truthfully is an expression. The important thing is not to deny the emotion or ignore it, nor to Criticize it, and your body and mind will naturally guide this energy and calm it down. At the same time, in this state, you may gain some insights about this event, including some beliefs and definitions that you may not have seen, and see how they are. Impact your life and see if they no longer make sense to you, allowing you to evaluate whether you want to change these limiting thoughts.
To sum up, emotions are neutral. We label them as positive or negative. Understanding the causes and operating mechanisms of emotions can help us view and get along with them more healthily, and then see what they want to bring to us. Our messages and emotions will be our guide in life, rather than a disturbing physical and mental reaction.
If you look at your depression with your heart, you will see the anger underneath it; look at your anger with your heart, you will see the sadness underneath it; look at your sadness with your heart, and you will see the root of all these disguises - fear. .
-Pert’s therapist Carolyn Stearns
Unexpressed emotions
According to Bashar, natural emotions actually end in 15 seconds, and the subsequent extension is related to all the limiting beliefs and thoughts within oneself; Jill Bolte Taylor, an American neuroanatomist who embarked on a miraculous journey of recovery from a stroke He also pointed out in the book that a normal natural emotional reaction lasts for about 90 seconds. When a person has an emotional reaction to an event in the environment, the body will enter various chemical reactions for about 90 seconds, but this state can only last for 90 seconds. Any emotional response that remains after 90 seconds is the person's choice (whether consciously or subconsciously) to stay in this emotional cycle.
The point is not the exact number of seconds, but the natural flow or non-flow of emotions. What consequences will it bring to us? In the book "The Fantastic World of Emotional Molecules", Candace B. Pert records her lifelong biochemical research on emotions in the book, so that we can be sure that natural emotions will have natural physiological reactions, helping our whole body to Corresponding to normal interaction, when this cycle is completed, the emotions are actually released in the body, and all physiology will return to health and normal. But what happens most often is that we autonomously continue the emotions and interrupt the normal physiological mechanism. .
Mood and health
If you have never understood the role of emotion in life, you suppress it, reject it, avoid it, ignore it or criticize it, and do not allow your emotions to flow and express properly, as mentioned in the previous paragraph, it will interrupt the normal flow of emotions. If this is the case for a long time, it is more likely to cause physical or psychological diseases. Due to different types of emotional repression, there may be different physical diseases or different types of mental diseases. Some books will deal with different diseases. Internal causes, but we think that is only a reference, because the complexity of our physical and mental mechanisms is not enough to explain a disease in a way that corresponds to some internal problems.
Candace B. Pert mentioned that these emotions do not flow naturally and accumulate to create stress and cause illness. This is caused by too much information. The mind-body network carries too much unprocessed sensory information (suppressed trauma or undigested information). emotions), so they are blocked, unable to operate smoothly, and even fight against themselves due to conflicting purposes. When pressure prevents emotional molecules from flowing smoothly to where they are needed, autonomous functions that operate by the flow of peptides, such as: Respiration, blood flow, immunity, digestion, and excretion are paralyzed into a few simple feedback loops, preventing the repair response from functioning normally.
Research by psychologist Lydia Temoshok also shows that cancer patients who keep anger in their hearts and ignore their existence for a long time recover more slowly than those who are accustomed to expressing their emotions. Another common trait of these patients is restraint. Desires, because they are unaware of their basic emotional needs, and another study has shown that the ability of cancer patients to express anger and sadness improves their survival rates.
When these emotional energies cannot flow naturally, in addition to causing the above-mentioned physical and psychological diseases, the distorted energy will also manifest itself in addictive behaviors or compensatory behaviors. These behaviors include addiction to eating, smoking, alcohol, drugs, escape, and feelings. Paralysis and repetitive behaviors that harm the body and mind...etc.
Whether it is manic mood, complete numbness, or depression and melancholy, it is the result of not allowing the natural flow of emotional energy. This means that we are in the moment of certain events (maybe extreme events, or may be... (occurring repeatedly for a long time), these true expressions are silenced, so this energy becomes an imbalanced state, which exists in our physical and mental systems, and is accompanied by imbalances in physiological mechanisms, causing us to experience various similar events in the future. Incapacitated, the power of true expression is constantly lost, resulting in a feeling of powerlessness, which gradually makes people turn to various distorted ways of compensation, replacing them with other negative and harmful behaviors to the body and mind, and may use violence to replace expression. Use the addictive method of taking drugs to divert, or enter a state of emotional freeze, becoming a person who seems to have no temper, but has a pressure cooker inside...etc.
I believe all emotion is healthy because it integrates the mind and body. Anger, fear, sadness, these so-called "negative" emotions, are just as healthy as calmness, courage, and joy. Suppressing these emotions and preventing them from flowing freely creates a mechanism to sow discord in the system, making it impossible for the system to have conflicting goals and to operate in unity. It creates a tense atmosphere, leading to blockage, slowing the flow of peptide signals, and being unable to maintain the operation at the molecular level, so the entire system falls into a state of decline, which can easily lead to disease. All real emotions are positive emotions.
-Candace B. Pert, a well-known American neuroscientist
Extreme emotions - am I depressed?
Sometimes, we will encounter some events, and these events trigger our violent emotions. Usually this is because the emotions caused by the event itself, the beliefs behind it, and the corresponding imprinted traumatic energy are too strong, so it is easy for us to arouse violent emotions. The mood, even without any accumulation process, enters negative melancholy or explosive mood. Here we do not want to describe it as depression or bipolar disorder or any such pathological term, we simply call it extreme mood.
In addition, sometimes, many people will share this with us, including ourselves, who have experienced unreasonable and deep anger or fear or depression, and even entered a state where they felt that they had no motivation to live, and entered such extreme emotions. Most of the situations are caused by issues that deeply affect us in many time and space. These issues leave traumatic energy and memories in various time and space. When there are similar issues in this life, we will be triggered in certain situations or states, or even not at all. The situation is triggered, and then you enter the endless abyss of darkness. At this time, you must truly understand that you are digesting many emotions in time and space, but you must also know that behind these emotions are some ideas that need you to liberate. To liberate high-field insights, we must also go back to the steps we mentioned in "How to Face Emotions" and fully accept and feel them, so that we can help ourselves see more clearly.
We don’t necessarily need to know what story happened, because in many times and spaces, we have all experienced similar feelings simultaneously, and here at this moment, this is a mature opportunity for us to release the negativity we have been carrying. Memory and emotional energy, as long as we have more knowledge and awareness of this situation, not only will we not be overwhelmed, but it can become an opportunity to transcend the subject.
However, there are many situations where when you enter a low emotional state, over time, you feel like a rubber ball that is deflating. Whether it is depression as judged by a doctor or not, this means that you need to understand and face this state. When you are at a long-term emotional low, For people, the message transmission of the mind-body network is usually disabled. In this state, many methods of coping with general emotions may be less effective. We recommend that you first declare your intention to get out of this state, and then pray for it. Help that is in your highest good, and then let synchronicity bring you the appropriate help.
If you are taking anti-depressant drugs prescribed by doctors, we have no objection, but if the drugs cannot eradicate your emotional problems, we still suggest that you can find a way to say goodbye to this state. After all, drugs require body organs. De-metabolism will also affect the nervous system and the automatic functions of the body and mind. When you feel ready and have a strong intention to say goodbye to this state, you can start looking for suitable help.
In our suggestions, in addition to the methods of releasing emotions mentioned in the next paragraph, you can try more methods, including finding relevant healing services, gaining some space for yourself through energy healing, or using healing Emotional formulas or crystal ores are not the ultimate goal. They are just to help you regain your ability to observe independently. Once your independent power comes back a little, you still need to feel the original appearance of this low emotion and think about how to dismantle it for yourself. The real message delivered.
In your observation, you may need to decouple many definitions of values and say goodbye to many ideas brought to you by your growth process or social environment. We cannot change others, and we are not here to change others. We are here to experience ourselves. This individual accepts his or her own story, accepts the incomprehension of others, and understands that other people's opinions and evaluations of us have nothing to do with ourselves. Only we can define ourselves. When you think that others don't accept you or don't act according to your wishes and make you suffer, but in fact you don't accept that they want to do this, it is also a kind of not accepting others and not allowing others to be themselves. In essence, it is The same energy, when you are willing to see the truth, let yourself release these unnecessary attachments and opinions, many beliefs and restrictions will automatically disintegrate layer by layer, and the physical and mental systems will begin to metabolize these energies and slowly restore healthy functions. .
PS. When we fall into an emotional trough, the vibration frequency will also be unbalanced, and we may resonate with more external negative energy. That’s why sometimes extreme emotions make it difficult for us to recover, as if we are stuck in a swamp, but As long as you know this, you can claim autonomy for yourself, provide yourself with a lot of help, and seek out other help because you know what is happening to you.
Shared anxiety
Among the many forms of emotions, in addition to our saying that the root cause is fear, among the extended emotions, we specifically talk about depression and anxiety because these two words and feelings are clearly expressed by many people nowadays. Many people always tell us that they have inexplicable anxiety. It seems that there is a reason but not entirely.
In this article, scientific research data from many books are cited, but in fact beyond this field, the influence of invisible energy level is still an area that needs to be touched, and it is also an area where we have more experience.
In this new era, the entire earth has a new energy coming in. You can decide whether to resonate with it based on your free will, but there are also many people who have subconscious tendencies to resonate with it, but there is no special conscious intention. Cognition and understanding, in fact, this energy wants to bring us change, to thank and say goodbye to the old way of thinking and acting, and to guide us to really start moving towards the true purpose of our coming to earth - to experience ourselves.
We can use many vague terms to describe our own nature, including light, love, creation, wisdom, infinity, etc., but we rarely really understand what it feels like and what it means. This is what we want to experience when we come to earth. The qualities, in fact, those darkness, ignorance, shadows, are really a part of us. Our self is all-encompassing, and we are experiencing these here.
These journeys help us slowly see our own characteristics and reality, so there are many messengers who constantly tell us that in this era, we need to be our true selves. Even these six words require a lot of creation and Experience requires deep feeling and intelligent understanding. Many people misunderstand it, but it is still the goal of today's new energy. Many people feel it, but they are stuck between the old and the new, or cannot find a new path, so Falling into a state of confusion and anxiety, because it is difficult for us to find a way of life, thinking, work content, etc. in the old society and framework that can imitate or correspond to the new energy. These all need to be re-understood and re-created by you. When we are stagnant in this state, anxiety will overwhelm us. Its true voice wants to tell you to follow the inspiration that you truly feel and feel happy in your heart, and live and do it. If you start to try, trust your inner intuition, Do what you love and take action, and the dark clouds will slowly dissipate, your inspiration and intuition will become clearer, and your anxiety will become less and less.
Release emotions and heal
If we do not feel our emotions truthfully, express, observe, and release them as mentioned in the previous article "How to Face Emotions", over time, we will remember various forms of unbalanced energy in ourselves. Among them, there may already be physical and mental illness or compensatory behaviors, including extreme emotions under special circumstances, which will make it more difficult for us to follow these steps to face emotions. In this case, we will suggest that there are already various People with different emotions or compensatory behaviors should first try the following methods to relieve heavy imbalanced energy.
In addition, when buried emotions emerge, regardless of whether they are triggered by external events, please remember that this is an opportunity, which means you can once again enter into the opportunity to accept it, feel it, express it and observe it. When you can do this Do it, and you will get the information that the emotions want to bring you. When you change those limiting thoughts, the emotions will naturally complete their work and return to their original appearance and become a stable river. Therefore, when these emotions emerge At this time, you can also try the following methods to help yourself gradually walk through and through.
01
run towards nature
02
Talk to supportive people
03
express deeply buried words
Health is more than just having "happy thoughts." Sometimes the biggest driver of recovery comes from bursting out of pent-up anger, allowing the immune system to reboot with the force of the shock. How and where you express it is up to you - alone in a room, in a group therapy setting where the interaction of members helps you express long-buried feelings, or with family or friends in spontaneous conversation. The point is to express it and then let it go so that it doesn't fester, or build up, or expand beyond control.

Talk to your body
Emotional peptides control blood flow and affect the flow and rate of blood to receptors. When we are shocked, our faces turn blank, and when we are angry, our faces turn red. This is a sensitive response of our body's system, but if we If your emotions are blocked by denial, suppression, or severe trauma, the blood flow will be compressed for a long time, depriving the frontal cortex and other organs of nutrients. This will make you drowsy and less alert, limiting your awareness, and then reducing your ability to participate in the mind-body dialogue. , determines the ability to change physiology or behavior, and ultimately, you may become stuck, unable to respond to the world around you in new ways, instead repeating old patterns of behavior and emotions based on past knowledge that does not apply.
-Candace B. Pert, a well-known American neuroscientist
07
clean eating
The walls of our large and small intestines are covered with neuropeptides and receptors, busy exchanging emotionally charged messages, while the pancreas releases at least twenty emotion-laden peptides to regulate the absorption and storage of nutrients. Carrying messages about fullness and hunger, however, we often ignore these messages and eat when we are not really hungry, using food to hide unpleasant emotions, leading to the habit of eating when we are nervous or frustrated. By viewing your emotions as messages about your digestive process, you can develop the ability to understand when your body needs what nutrients. Remember, it is peptides that regulate satiety and hunger, so when we ignore or deny our emotions , you can’t hear what our peptides are saying.
-Candace B. Pert, a well-known American neuroscientist

Meditation and cultivating awareness
09
Embrace yourself/support yourself unconditionally
Our body and mind are integrated and intelligent, and so are our emotions. We are a dynamic intelligent system that goes far beyond just biochemical mechanisms. We have the ability to heal ourselves and unlimited potential. Through our independent will, Set intentions, change your version of life, that’s the way it is, not a miracle, you and I can do it.
Our avoidance of emotions is usually rooted in fear. The fear is the fear of discovering that we have no value, the fear of discovering that we are unbearable, but these are our limiting thoughts. We ourselves are perfect and complete existences, the earth's Experience is just our quantum holographic projection. There are characters and scripts, and many physical and mental systems are set up to obtain experiences and experience ourselves. All seemingly negative selves and positive selves are part of ourselves, and they are all perfect and intact.
If you believe this passage, it invites you to start exploring your true self and put aside those constraints and frames. Even if your close friends or relatives do not understand or support you, these are not enough reasons for you to leave yourself behind. Those are their limitations, their issues, you have yours, but you are you, you are the only unique self, and only you have the responsibility to fully embrace yourself and accept yourself, why not? Because your existence proves that you are valuable, otherwise you would not be here, you would not exist. So embrace the truth for yourself. Embrace the fact that your mere existence is radiant and of infinite value.
