Emotions

Discussions on what our emotions are and how they connect us to each other. We can send emotion energy such as love and we can feel and receive it also.

Hope

Hope is a powerful emotion.

hope4

We connect with the universe through our emotions.  Hope of survival, a better life, finding love all bring us strength to keep moving forward.  It is said that in times of war or crisis those who retain hope have a greater probability of surviving.  I believe that it is the emotion of hope that taps us into the universal energy which is all around us.  From this energy we are given strength and capabilities to help us to survive.  We just need to ask for it. read more

Creativity and emotions

Creativity – an expression of the soul within us all

Art, music, poetry all play with our emotions of sadness, laughter etc. and are found in all countries and all cultures; expressed from our hearts rather than our heads, it reflects our ‘inner you’.

The Who, Hyde Park, London 2015

At a concert in Hyde Park, London, UK I was struck by the backdrops of light and images the bands had chosen. The Who in particular had a grand display of psychedelic patterns and images. Perhaps the musicians, who are highly creative and strongly connected to their ‘inner you’, have half remembered memories of life between lives. read more

Giving & receiving love

Love is such a powerful emotion

Love

Love

Love heals, makes you laugh and generally make life worth living.

Loving is for all, not just your partner, family and friends. Often the most unlovable people are those that gain the most value from your love, be it a smile, a kind word or an offer of help. Receiving love as well as giving love balances the passing of energy. Sometimes it takes practice to receive love. Many are good at giving but do not practice receiving. To be balanced you need to do both.

Dalai Lama on anger

What can anger do to us?

“Like anyone else, I too have anger in me. However, I try to recall that anger is a destructive emotion. I remind myself that scientists now say that anger is ba…d for our health; it eats into our immune system. So, anger destroys our peace of mind and our physical health. We shouldn’t welcome it or think of it as natural or as a friend.”    Dalai Lama

Eyes: are they the windows to our souls?

You can see our emotions in our eyes

eyes

Others can feel our emotions like love, anger, honesty. They can also see it in our eyes. People in love typically look directly into each others eyes. It’s a very intimate gesture. Eyes reveal so much about ourselves.

When you want to know if a person is telling the truth, look into their eyes as they speak. You will be able to see the answer. A person’s eyes are very revealing.

Science now shows that the colour and patterns in our eyes directly relate to our personal characteristics like compassion. It’s interesting that science is catching up with what we have always known intuitively. read more

Are we connected to one another?

Can someone else read your emotions?    

20th century man was adamant that each person was an island and we lived our lives in separateness. The 21st century has started to challenge this idea. Think what it’s like to be in a room with a person who is angry or disapproving of you. You can feel their anger without them even saying a word.
