The Body Talk Corner: WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF OUR EMOTIONS?
– Jean Degenaar (Certified BodyTalk
Practitioner)
What
is the purpose of our emotions?
Our emotions are meant to be felt,
expressed, and released. They are information about our environment, our
experience and ourselves. Healthy emotions have health
benefits. For example without grief, we linger in the sadness of loss. Grieving
is the process of letting go of what is past so that we can make room in our
hearts and minds for new life and new experiences. Physical and mental symptoms
arise when we are not expressing our emotions optimally. In our need to be
accepted and feel safe, we repress our emotions which
distorts them and they then become reactionary emotions. At some
point these unresolved and repressed emotional issues will be triggered
by an experience in life and we will over-react to the new experience because
of the filter of our past pain that we are unconsciously looking through. Since
this is typically an unconscious process and because of that we don’t
understand our over-reaction and its connections to the past, we focus on
blaming the current person or experience. This means our wound is
unacknowledged and goes unhealed; only to be detonated again at a later time.
These stored emotions deplete the organs, endocrines, and body-parts associated
with it, leading to disfunction or disease.
How do you know if
you are expressing your emotions healthily?
If you experience emotional
discomfort in reaction to a situation and this discomfort lingers, you are
being shown you have an unresolved issue stored within you. Your
level of functioning and harmony within yourself are good indicators of how
healthy your relationship is with your emotions.
What can you do to
release unprocessed emotions?
Fortunately there are some very good modalities
out there to help people release unprocessed emotions. BodyTalk is one of
these modalities which will help to get to the source of the emotional
imbalance on a subconscious level and through tapping, release the emotional
charge and bring balance back to the body/mind.
WHAT IS QI?
Qi is fundamental in the understanding of Traditional Chinese Medicine.
It can be likened to Prana, life force or the intrinsic energy in our bodies.
It pervades all. In Chinese culture, everything in the universe is
composed of & defined by it’s Qi. Mountains, forests and our human emotions
all have Qi. Qi is the expansion and contraction of the cosmos.
It is the thread connecting all being. Qi allows any phenomenon to
retain cohesion, grow and transform into other forms.
Qi includes all Yin and Yang. It also has a more narrow & specific
sense. In it’s practical and clinical sense, Qi means the particular dynamic of
engendering, movement, tension and activation. This is the more Yang aspect.
Repose, self reflection & quietude are more Yin. Qi encompasses both Yin
and Yang.
The Qi that is directly involved in a person’s life has three sources.
The first of these is Original Qi (yuan-qi),
also known as Prenatal Qi, which is transmitted by parents to their children at
conception. This Qi is responsible for one’s inherited constitution. The second
source is Grain Qi (gu-qi), which is
derived from digestion. The third is Natural Air Qi (kong-qi), which is extracted from by the lungs from the air we
breathe.
These three forms of Qi intermingle to produce the Qi that permeates
the whole person. There is no place that does not have Qi & no place that
it does not permeate.
