Millions of individuals suffer from fear, anxiety, depression, etc. Many of these persons however do suffer because they engage their mind with those emotional objects causing fear, anxiety, depression, etc.
If you want to vary your emotional approach – if you want to balance and heal your emotional life, then you need to focus on happiness, joy, love, you need to focus all your attention on the sunny side of life to attract joyful emotional energies within yourself. You are becoming what you feed yourself with.
Being able to manage your emotions is a massive step towards limitless happiness. For little things in your life, you will be able to use the following method to immediately change your thoughts and viewpoints. For bigger matters it might take more time.
Identify the emotions you need to control. If you are prone to angry break outs, then find coping systems that work for you. Focus on your breathing. Breathe slowly and deeply to help decrease your heart rate and take more oxygen to your brain. When you focus on your breathing, you change your ideas from the emotions you’re feeling, removing them from the forefront of your mind.
Use visualization imagine soothing circumstances or colors you find relaxing. This technique is a very effective way to control your emotions during stressful or high-anxiety times or if something has made you very angry. Concentrate on an item in the distance for several minutes. This focal point will put your energy on something other than the emotions you’re feeling.
Recognize the emotion you were feeling at the time when you couldn’t effectively express it. Usually emotions that you don’t want to let somebody see are negative and you need to acknowledge these negative feelings in order to deal with them. Ask yourself why you were mad or what strained you out about the situation.
Emotions are our ringing bell. When we are in a bad mood, it means we are experiencing bad emotions. When we are in a good mood, it means we’re experiencing good emotions.
This means what you do (your behavior) feeds back what you believe in. It’s a circle. It’s a vicious circle when emotions are bad and a virtuous circle when emotions are good.
When you live out your emotions thru behavior, you won’t be living out emotions, but rather confirming your unhappy thinking pattern. Instead of getting rid of the emotion, you’ll be feeding it. It will grow in you.
