the pleasure is all mine
the water is invisible to the fish
anger is fire in your belly
Once you're done gnashing your teeth, and you've run ten miles and dug the trench, you'll be exhausted. Your mind will go blank
wild waves of emotion
Much like a wave in the ocean, emotional waves need to move...they come and then they go, they can be small ripples, or huge tsunamis. Stopping the flow of these emotions is detrimental to your physical and emotional health, and is ultimately as impossible as stopping the ocean. You need these emotions to create health in your body, and in your mind
Healthy anger is a necessary emotion. It is the "No Trespass" zone. We need to be able to access this emotion in order to set healthy boundaries-- to say No to what we don't want, or don't like. People who block their flow of anger often feel used, abused, and mistreated because they cannot access their ability to say "No" to undesired behaviors
Sadness: The physical pathway for sadness usually starts in the chest. This wave of emotion travels upward, past the throat, and continues up to the eyes where we see tears. Sadness is vital to clearing out and letting go of pain and dis-ease. People who attempt to stop this flow of emotion may "choke up" (stopping the flow at the throat), they may bite or chew their lips or inside of their mouth, or they may fan or wipe their face in an attempt to stop the tears from coming
Each emotion has a pathway that literally runs through the physical body. If you think of e-motion as energy in motion, you will soon realize that emotions are simply waves of energetic sensations that travel through the body. These emotions don't exist to torture you, they are actually meant to support your well-beingAnger: Healthy anger energy usually begins in the upper back, between the shoulder blades and travels upward along the spine, up the back of the neck, and then around to the sides of the jaw. If you've ever seen a dog raise its hackles and growl, you've seen authentic anger energy. People who have unknowingly been conditioned to block the flow of this emotion may have upper back pain, tight shoulders, tension headaches in the back of the head, and may clench their jaw, or grind their teeth. Tensing the body in these locations is a person's attempt to block the flow of energy along this pathway
