Emotional Guidance System

Recently I have pondered the role of deep sadness, grief and anger, as it relates to our emotional guidance system.

The "negative" emotions are not to be ignored, nor are they to be wallowed in. So what does one do when feeling such intense feelings that indicate we are not going in the right direction, or that we are resisting our connection to Source?

I realized today that those feelings are a perfect way to demonstrate contrast. They are also a tool to assist us in our growth, our movement to the things we actually want to occur in our lives.

Trying to shove down or ignore those feelings is not the way to move towards what we want. It is important to distinguish between feeling good or joyful and avoiding feeling bad.

It is okay to feel bad. That is human. Be open to why you are feeling bad and allow that to direct you to the feeling good place. And be gentle with yourself while you are doing this.

Sometimes we have things from our past, including our childhood, that we are still working on. If we didn't resolve them then, they will keep coming up. So listen, discern, and discover the reason behind the feelings. This will allow you to keep growing in a positive way and finally break the circle of negativity in your life.
