You’ve Got to Be Authentic, if You Wanna Be Happy 👍

If you want to move forward in ways that matter to you, you’ve got to allow yourself to feel your authentic emotion. By taking time to understand and be with our emotions, we can transform their energy into positive movement with loving, compassionate focus.
You’ve Got to Be Authentic, if You Wanna Be Happy 👍

In this Gabor Maté video [1] we learned how we as a human race have learned to suppress our emotion, which is resulting in a pandemic of physical, emotional and mental health.

Learning how to allow and express our emotions is critical for health and happiness.

So today, we’re going to get Happier… by allowing ourselves to be authentic emotionally.

The Heart of Authenticity ❤️‍🩹

If you want to move forward in ways that matter to you, you’ve got to allow yourself to feel your authentic emotion. [2]

The HUGE MISUNDERSTANDING too many of us have about emotion - is that it’s not well understood how to FEEL our emotions – so they can be received and we can learn what we need, what’s out of balance and what’s important.

For example – when we have BIG Anger we have a LOT of energy that’s often directed into blame and revenge. And if we don’t take some time, with loving compassion and acceptance – that anger does and says stupid things.

But if we can allow ourselves to FEEL, and to BE WITH our emotion, and curiously we ask: What do you need? What’s out of balance? What’s important to you right now?

If we ask and TAKE TIME allowing our emotion to show us our answers, we’ll find our loving compassionate focus easily transforms this energy into positive movement.
