We all have emotions. We are emotional beings and our emotions are experienced in response to our environment. Emotions are a normal part of life, as we experience and interpret the world through them. In order to lead a healthy, full life, we need to move through all emotions fluently. Emotions are supposed to be felt, processed by the body, mind, and spirit connection, and then at some point let go of. This is usually the trajectory of positive emotions which result in you feeling good. On the other hand, those “not as good” emotions often follow a different trajectory.

Our body is a representation of our subconscious. It holds onto all sorts of memories, beliefs and perceptions for us, a ton of messages. These messages might show up in the form of niggling feelings, dreams or passing thoughts, or get stored in the body in form of tension, blockages, constrictions, flattening sensations and emotions. Like a child that wants undivided attention, our body will only let these messages go, if we are willing to stop and acknowledge and then release them, but this is often easier said than done…
Most of us are highly aware of the fact that we need to love ourselves and top up our cup first, before we can help others.
But loving yourself is easier said than done.
Positive affirmations can be super powerful, but if every ounce of your being screams “what a load of nonsense!!” within, you won’t be able to feel it and you will simply be wasting your time.
This is called cognitive dissonance and is a result of a conflict between your conscious mind (telling you you “should” love yourself) and your subconscious mind.

We all have emotions. We are emotional beings and our emotions are experienced in response to our environment. In order to lead a healthy, fulfilled life, we need to move through all emotions fluently.
However, in society we've learnt that some emotions are apparently not "as good" as other ones.

When I was 16 I got very sick, couldn't go to school for many weeks and nothing that the medical system did for me seemed to help. On the contrary, the more I listened to their advice and ignored my inner feeling going "no way, don't do that", the worse I got.
I was quite stressed out and overwhelmed at the time with one of my close friends wanting to commit suicide, me coaching her and my boyfriend and her not getting along. There was a lot of other stuff going on, but this situation just tipped it over.
Read on, if you'd like to hear what happened next and how my body taught me that I had to listen to it.
