How to Connect With Your Emotions (The Hidden Secret of Positive Living)


peace and Finnick waters diving deep
once again how to feel feelings your
feelings I used to work in a job I hated
once it was terrible
can I get a Hello so every day I receive
a lot of questions about depression
anxiety emotions in general and I
received a question which asked how do
we really feel feelings and I said
that’s a great question because what’s
helped me along my journey is to see
that once you can allow yourself to feel
any feeling any emotion that is the
catalyst to becoming your greatest
version if you want to say whoa in the
middle of when you’re talking so be it
who cares because once again who is
judging us so what happens when for
instance you want to reach out to
someone but you’re so used to having a
brick face you are in resistance to a
certain feeling what happens if you are
feeling down are you feeling up why are
you feeling down ok now you’re feeling
down but what happens when someone says
I want you to smile because you’re on
camera you are in resistance you see
where there is true expression
depression cannot live but when there is
suppression depression exists so what’s
helped me along my journey is honest
expression back in the day I was going
through a lot
problems a lot of crazy stuff I had to
study a lot relationship issues money
issues but I was making music that is
what I had at the time which helped me a
lot
because it was a way I could express how
I felt in a very artistic way and a good
friend and I were just freestyle we
would make music we would sing and I had
a lot to get off my chest so I was
saying all kinds of things things that I
actually wanted to say to people to
their face but I didn’t have the
confidence to so music became my
creative outlet channel all of that
negative energy I was feeling into a
more constructive positive energy now I
say there is nothing wrong if you are
angry there is nothing wrong if you are
sad there is nothing wrong if you are
happy the question is can you surrender
to whatever you are feeling can you
allow whatever you are feeling to pass
through you can you own your emotions
can you take responsibility for how you
feel or do you need to be socially
acceptable with your feelings no way
what I realize is that you can feel
however you like but once you are
evolving what I saw is that now you have
to ask yourself the big question which
is how is this serving you so many times
we have to let go of this guilt that is
what keeps so many of us from expressing
ourselves we’re ashamed of how other
people might see us what are my friends
and family
I think the next-door neighbor which
I’ve never even spoken to anyway
the cat the dog oh my goodness what are
they gonna think about what I really
have to say about how I really think
would I have any friends left so all of
these things are going through our minds
and we have to have the courage to
accept ourselves a hundred percent of
who we really are now also guilt is what
could stop us from really expressing
ourselves I learned from the past but I
don’t let the past control me and in the
past is where guilt is stored a lot of
us we can’t tap into our feelings
because we are guilty to feel a certain
way we’ve grown up in our minds we’ve
told ourselves that that is a bad
feeling you have to be positive all the
time or you have to be sad all the time
or you have to say yes all the time or
you have to say no all the time but you
have to ask yourself where did all of
these thoughts come from you or someone
else did you adopt them did you take
them home with you did you put them in
your wardrobe so to truly feel your
feelings I’ve seen you have to find your
authentic voice you have to listen to
your intuition your visceral emotions
and whatever resonates with you the most
Carl Rogers the great psychologists
talked of seeing yourself with
unconditional positive regard and once I
adopted that into my life boy it helped
because whenever you see yourself
as just good enough but more so that hey
even if you fail it’s okay even if you
make a mistake it’s okay because those
eyes the internal eyes are so much more
powerful than the external ones the best
way to fail is to doubt yourself
Lenin honor thank you that’s a great
great quote but whenever we don’t see
ourselves in a favorable light what
happens now it gets harder to tune into
how we are really feeling we want to
reach for the bottle we want to drink
ourselves into oblivion so we don’t want
to feel because feeling becomes a bit
too close for comfort
so what helped me along my journey was
seeing what was making me sensitive to
my feelings and emotions and what was
desensitizing me to my feelings and
emotions so what was desensitizing me
being in denial of how I really felt
it’s okay to be angry it’s okay to be
sad it’s okay to smile every single day
that’s what I love to do Voltaire I
smile because it’s good for my health
ditto but there are so many other things
desensitizing us every single day
without us knowing what kind of music
are you listening to so in my early
journey I would listen to a lot of
aggressive music because that’s how I
was feeling at the time so I realized
why
began to love myself more then I started
to listen to bossa nova music then I
learned how to play the guitar and that
opened up a whole nother door into
feeling because our feelings are the
gateway to our expansion the more you
can feel the more you can express as
your self-expression increases then your
self-love increases as your
self-expression decreases then your
self-love decreases sometimes a lot of
us we want to say things but we’re
afraid so just even me making videos
talking to you amazing people has helped
me feel my feelings
why because I’m talking about my
personal experiences so a great way to
feel your emotions to really just feel
is to speak your truth it doesn’t have
to be right it doesn’t have to be wrong
it doesn’t have to be good it doesn’t
have to be bad all you have to do is
express yourself a hundred percent in
whatever way you know how many times
people who have a lot of depression or
anxiety panic attacks it’s because you
have a problem with the throat chakra
you are silencing yourself so if I was
to ask you where are your feelings
stored you might say in my head in my
brain no no that’s what I used to think
then I found out the secret our feelings
our emotions
are stored within our body because the
body is the subconscious mind so the
more you move into your body you develop
what I call total body awareness whether
it’s through yoga swimming running
cycling now you are getting a better
relationship with your body
therefore it’s actually allowing you to
feel more whenever you can’t feel you
have to ask yourself am I disconnected
from my body because a lot of us are
we’re sitting in the chair eating
popcorn okay but feeling allows you to
be vulnerable feeling allows you to not
care what anybody thinks of you but it
takes great bravery but through this
connection with your body you develop
more confidence and I found that
meditation also helps feeling why
because now you are listening to all of
those thoughts in your head okay but
more so you are getting more intimate
with yourself you’re becoming more
sensitive but one of the greatest ways
I’ve found to feel your feelings is to
be with someone or around people who
allow you to be your self and don’t want
to change you but accept you for who you
are a hundred percent because let’s face
it we’ve all been around people or been
with someone who we can’t really express
ourselves 100
and it is really frustrating to the
point where sometimes we just switch off
we want to be around people that bring
out our true expression that’s what’s
helped me along my journey has helped me
along my journey to feel my feelings
when I’m around people who embrace me a
hundred percent and I embrace them so
food okay
lastly food that’s the big way to feel
more foods with life
are you eating to live why are you
eating to die eating more plant-based
foods is a great way to feel eating a
lot of junk foods once again it can
switch off your feelings because it’s
synthetic you are a living organic being
why are you putting artificial chemicals
inside of your temple but that you have
it
express yourself a hundred percent love
yourself a hundred percent and have a
wonderful day we are here infinite
waters diving deep once again stay well stay healthy
