EP 318: How to Elevate Your Energy, and Benefit You And Those Around You

As we become more aware of the cycle of thoughts>emotions>sensations that cause (or relieve) the stress response in our bodies, we gain the power to break the cycle. And as we exercise this power, we change a crucial aspect of our personal interaction with others: our empathic resonance. Over the past few decades, neuroscience has caught up with what ancient contemplative practices have held for millennia: that we are connected through our energy to one another. So when you walk into your home after a long day of work to join your children and partner, outside your consciousness you are going to have an impact on these people closest to you. It’s either going to be positive and uplifting. Or it’s going to be negative and dragging down. And it is directly related to the cycle of your thoughts, emotions, and physical sensations. Therefore, developing this awareness allows you to break this cycle and quite literally change the energetic exchange between you and those you love. It’s hard to overstate how beneficial this can be for the children you might have in your life. But it’s also beneficial to everyone whose lives you touch every single day, from the closest loved ones to the most anonymous strangers.
