How To Deal With Negative Emotions.

Negative emotions are an indication that you are out of alignment with your true self and what you hold to be most valuable to your well-being. Consider emotions as a scale where total despair is at the bottom of the scale, and total bliss is at the other end of the scale. The closer in alignment we are with our True Self, the more joy we find in each moment we are alive, the more energized, the more healthy, the more life is really fun to express.

So, when one gets into a funk, where you feel uneasy, out of sorts, angry, etc., in the moment you realize you are in this emotional state, think of something, or do something which eases the emotional state, take a step back towards your True Self where bliss is ever present. Doing so, most of the time, is a gradual process, so feeling just a little better, then feeling just a little better, then feeling just a little better, eventually moves you towards your perfect state of well-being, where once again, you can feel and express joy.

The key to this being effective is to be fully present in the Here, Now Moment by Moment unfolding. Now is where we make choices, so it is the only instance when we have the power and ability to shift our state in being.

Constantly expressing appreciation for what we have in our lives is a good way to move up the emotional scale. In other words, count your blessings, however trivial you might think they are.

Sing a happy song, dance to music you enjoy, watch a funny movie, anything that works for you, pet your cat or dog, anything that works for you.
