Emotions and energy

Attention is energy. And the one thing in life that we are trying to always get more of is energy! The stores try to sell it to us in the form of vitamins, Starbucks will package it in the coffee cup and coke a cola gives it to you in the form of soda pop. We run our lives constantly trying to get or gain energy. And we do this by getting energy from the people around us. When we receive the attention from another maybe in the form of "Oh you look so beautiful in that outfit!" we are boosted up. And can then move on with more energy. And when someone doesn't give us the attention that we crave we "shrink" or loose or spend our energy in a negative manner.

Our being has five layers: (body) the physical layer, (breath) the breath layer, (mind) the mental layer, (emotions) the etheric layer, (spirit) the ananda layer or bliss layer. If we want to work on staying centered with out loosing energy let's take a look at the etheric layer or the emotional layer and see just where we may be loosing energy. Let's see if we can learn more about our very own relationships and know just where we are giving too much energy in an area where we don't need to be.

Technique: Visualize all of the emotional (love/hate) relationships that have a hold over you. For example if you have a love/hate relationship with a boss in Paris, imagine that you can expand you body or being to include them inside your expanded self or new extended boundary. Include the emotional relationship as part of who you are! So, with that boss in Paris if you are still harboring guilt or hate or anger keep that with you as part of who you are and then keep doing this with each and every relationship that you have.

You will just see how much energy is held up in this emotional layer. Now ask yourself how much of there emotions are taking away your energy? Do you need to hold on to all of these emotions? Are these emotions serving you in the present moment? Can you drop these feelings and only call upon them when needed in the present moment?

Try this technique for 10 days and just see what is revealed to you. There is no right and wrong. Just enjoy, explore this part of your being and see what happens.

Enjoy!
