Emotional baggage

When you travel somewhere, what do you prefer: carry a light bag of necessary things, or 3 twenty kilo suitcases just because you can? I guess the first one. In life we have similar approach, meaning when our mind is clean, we think more clearly, we focus more easily, we are calm and ready for the day. But as we move on through day, our mind is filled more and more with some random thoughts, not always by our fault, as our surrounding affects us in a great way. Sometimes, by the end of the day we feel overwhelmed by events that we can barely think of anything, and just want to switch off. And how about events of the day? The havoc they made, is it all gone away the next day? Sleep definitely helps, but there are instances when some situations “cause” us to react in such a way, that we are moved so much and we can feel it in our body for a long time later. Like it or not, but in such times, there is a great chance that such energy, whether it would be sadness or anger, could get stuck in our bodies. We want to deal with it later, but life is so busy that we often forget, and now we ended up carrying this energy with us. It’s not a big deal to carry some emotions around, but what happens when we managed to hold on to whole 20 kilo suitcase of negative emotions, and carry it wherever we go?

Imagine that! Going to interview with 20 years of sadness and regret or other emotions. Or entering a business opportunity after feeling defeated and abused after last one. How is that going to work? How your emotional baggage is going to affect your new venture? Is it going to be a new adventure, clean slate. Or your past will trigger survival mechanisms at the slightest chance of dishonesty?

What I’m saying here is to allow yourself to learn from past experience, BUT don’t live there. What I’m offering you is to remove the emotional charge which made you react and live in survival mode. And allow you to start fresh, no matter where you are in life right now. Because emotional baggage does not care whether you’re at home, office, uni or on the street. It follows you everywhere, unless you release it.

FAQ

There are a few ways to do that and some of them you can do by yourself right now. To clear up your mind a long walk in the nature, usually is very effective. If you like meditation that can also help to clear up your mind. However, what I’ve found very efficient too, a technique like Emotion code is really effective in a long run. It not only clears out the emotions associated with a particular event, but also the associated negative feelings go away for good.

We can do remote and face-to-face sessions. Both are equally effective. Usually, a session lasts around 40 minutes, if it’s your first session, it will take longer as I explain details of what I do, so you understand what is going on. If anything pops up during session, and we need to stop, it doesn’t disturb the process and we continue when we left off whenever we can. Sometimes we may need to have more than one session, depending on how you feel the next day.

Usually, it may be associated with what is going on in your life at the moment. For example, you have more duties at work, and that pressure adds up, our body feels more stress, and emotions are on loose. Our unconscious wants to regain balance, but there is too much that is going on around you, and every additional request feels like a threat to yourself on a conscious and unconscious level. Fight or flight mechanism is on, as a protection, and you act in one of those ways, just to protect yourself, and give you some space to regain balance.
What can you do about it? Well, that’s individual question for every one of us. But if someone contacts me, I would first, calm person down, so they feel safer and in balance now. And secondly, I would help to build up resilience for the future, so that person is better equipped for life.
