Rainbow

We have been looking, over the last few blogs, at the melting pot of our emotions and those emotional responses that can be triggered by stress and things that make us anxious. If you have read all of these then you will be quite aware of the differences we have, and how things impact us on an individual level. I think it shows that having too much of any emotion can lead us into seeing red, or getting blue, or any of the other emotional responses. What we need to do and strive to, is to stay balanced and have that rainbow effect of emotions to help and support us through those difficult times. Finding a way to rebalance yourself is key to helping you feel more grounded, more secure, and more personally in control of how you are responding in life. We all have to accept that there are times in life when we can't change what's happening, but we can change how we respond to things. Learning to challenge ourselves to be that best version of ourselves, even in those challenging situations, is the key to living a happier and healthier life. What we need to do is find our own personal solutions that help to change the negative emotional responses we are having. For example, if you see red a lot and struggle with your frustration and anger levels then finding safe ways to release the build-up of those feelings would help you. This could be that you go for a run, head to the gym, or even turn your music up loud in your car and have a scream. All of these can be effective in changing and reducing the red feelings within you, exercise is great at reducing trapped adrenaline which can easily flue the anger and frustrations within you. Also having a scream is great for releasing frustration and helping your body be more open to relaxing.
