In today's episode we discuss how YOU ARE NOT YOUR EMOTIONS. Emotions are a beautiful form of wisdom, and most of us get into loops of repressing… or becoming attached and identified by our emotions. Finding a balance and understanding how to listen, but not react… helps us return to an empowered state

Key Moments:
Secure/ Anxious / Avoidant attachment comes from the environment we were raised in
Latin verb for Emotion is "Emotus" or "ēmoveō" - to move, stir, move through
Emotions take on average 90 sec to move through body
Triggers - you cant control how you feel, but you can control how you respond
Lessons of emotions:
Anger: A boundary has been crossed (rather with yourself or another) - encourages us to use our empowerment and energy to move in a new direction, or to let go of what doesn't serve us. Courage is fueled by anger
Sadness: A sign to go inward, something wants to be grieved/ released. It cleanses, and creates empathy & connection with others
Fear: What needs to be seen in order to be overcome. The deeper lesson is discernment. Are we truly in danger, or is this a threshold we haven't crossed yet that will support our growth?
Jealousy: Direction you desire, but don't have yet. Underneath the judgment, can you see the quality or aspect that you actually are craving?
Joy: Seek more of these experiences
