Distance from Emotions

Morning Mantra: "Try to witness the emotion instead of becoming it."

Let's get real, you probably won't be able to do this when you are emotionally flooded, so give yourself a break.  However, there will be moments when you can stand back and observe the flow of your thoughts and emotions.  To see yourself as a person experiencing an emotion, and that you are not the emotion itself.

When this happens you will be less likely to get caught up in the stories your mind spins, and you'll be more able to process and release emotions as you move through them.  Especially when you are experiencing negative emotions like anger, pain, resentment and such.

The first step in learning this is to change the way you speak to yourself. Instead of saying "I'm so angry!" go with "my mind is experiencing anger." and so on.

When you use this kind of language, you are creating a sense of distance between who you really are (love and light) and the negative emotion.  Creating this distance can cool the fires of, and reactions to, negative emotions.

Allow yourself to see yourself as the person experiencing the emotion and you will be less likely to label yourself as an angry person, a stressed person, or a bad person and more likely to continue to love your essence while you experience a negative emotion.
