Emotions play an important role in helping us process what is happening in our lives.
They enable us to take in the impact of an event, feel its significance to us and express our reaction or response.
They carry our feelings outward...moving them out of the body, clearing any emotional residue and purging us of emotional toxicity that might be hiding inside us.
But there is an even MORE POWERFUL function of emotions that we experience in our life.
But there is an even MORE POWERFUL function of emotions that we experience in our life.
Rhonda Byrne, author of The Power tells us that, "Every feeling you have saturates every cell and organ in your entire body."
If you are radiating love, "you receive the full force of health through your body at an astounding rate."
On the other hand, Byrne tells us that tension from anger, fear, stress, etc. causes your nerves, cells and blood vessels to contract, “changing the vital chemical production in your body...all of which reduces the force of your health.”
LOVE appears to be THE ULTIMATE PRESCRIPTION for strengthening and protecting the immune system and every cell in the body.
This means that WE CONTROL THE STATE OF OUR HEALTH by what we choose to believe and, therefore, feel (through the force of our emotions).
We DO NOT have to stay programmed to any beliefs we have been taught that violate what is in our hearts, our intuition, our instincts. All that we have to do is stay true to our authentic selves by recognizing, acknowledging and speaking our truth.
This includes accepting and acknowledging ALL that we feel, including the troubling emotions.
By not denying these emotions, by not chasing them back into the shadows we are LOVING WHAT IS and, because we let ourselves love what is within us, we naturally extend that love to all that is around us.
iT IS MY BELIEF THAT WE NEED TO COURAGEOUSLY CONSULT OUR HEARTS, MAKING THEM OUR FINAL AUTHORITY IN ALL OF OUR DECISIONS.
This path CAN be our legacy if we are not impeded by a compelling need to meet another's expectations at the cost of our own honor.
Nature is Divinely designed to serve us and reward our self honoring and consequent outpouring of love by taking BEAUTIFUL care of our health and vitality.
To achieve this,
LOVING and ACCEPTING OURSELVES
are the ultimate prescription.
