The Ego

because it lives in fear.”

 person thinks every day." ~ Deepak Chopra

The ego is your self-image

7 step plan to releasing emotional toxicity

Deepak Chopra's 7 step plan to releasingemotional toxicity

by Deepak Chopra on Tuesday, January 4, 2011 at 2:04am

Deepak Chopra shares a simple but very effective 7 step process for identifying, expressing, and releasing emotional pain. 

 "Conscious awareness is the 1st step to mastering your emotions, providing you with the tools to tap into that divine intelligence guiding you to the highest evolution of your soul's purpose." ~Enza Currenti~

✔ 1 Take responsibility for your emotion

✔ 2 Witness the emotion

✔ 3 Define or label the emotion

✔ 4 Express the emotion

✔ 5 Share the emotion

✔ 6 Release the emotion through ritual

✔ 7 Celebrate the release and move on



Let's now go through each one.

There are at least 7 steps to releasing emotional toxicity.

 The 1st step is

✔ 1. Take responsibility for your emotions. (Identify the emotion)   

So if you think that somebody else is causing your emotional toxicity - than you have to wait for them to change which means you could be waiting for the rest of your life. 

Take responsibility for what you are feeling. Understanding that you have a choice in how you respond to and interpret your experience is the key to healing the emotional body. 

The 2nd thing is to

 ✔ 2. Witness the emotions in your body.

Think of an experience you had, an interaction with someone that was uncomfortable.

The more you feel the sensation, the more you get in touch with the emotion.  

Notice where you feel the emotion in your body. Observe the feeling and allow your attention to stay on the sensation. Breathe into the feeling. Fully experiencing the physical sensations allows the emotional charge to dissipate. 

✔ 3. Define it: is it anger, fear?

(When you find yourself in a state of emotional turmoil, find a quiet place & ask yourself, “What am I feeling?” The answer may be anger, sadness, fear, and so on. Define and describe what you’re feeling as clearly as possible.) 

✔ 4. Express it: write down happens.

Express the emotion to yourself. You can write about your feelings or speak them out loud in private. Describe the situation and the effect it is having on your heart and soul. This will help you gain clarity and insight as well as release the emotional toxicity.

After you've expressed it, then

✔ 5. Share it with a loved one.

Share the emotion. Once you’ve released and calmed down, share what you felt and experienced with the person involved in the situation.

If you have processed steps 1 through 5, you should be able to share without blame and without trying to manipulate the other person for approval or pity.

 ✔ 6. Then do a ritual to release the emotion: ►burn it, thrown it to the wind. Experiment to find what works best for you. Dance with abandon, do some deep breathing, get a massage, or go on a long run or walk along the beach. Allow your body to release the tension that is stored with the emotion.

And then once you release it, CELEBRATE! 

✔ 7. Bring that to a closure by going out and celebrating."

Why Celebrate? Because it’s time to reward yourself for identifying and releasing the painful emotion.

Do something special for yourself . . . listen to your favorite music, buy yourself a present, or enjoy a delicious meal.

That's how you release toxic emotions! 

Give that which we seek

‎"In our willingness to give that which we seek,
 we keep the abundance of the universe circulating
 in our lives."~Deepak Chopra~

The Most Unfair Thing

"The most unfair thing about life is how it ends. 

I mean, life is tough. 

It takes up a lot of your time. 

What do you get at the end of it? A Death !! 

What's that, a bonus? 

I think the life cycle is backwards. 

You should die first, get it out of the way. 

Then you live in an old age home. 

You get kicked out when you're too young, 

you get a gold watch, you go to work. 

You work 40 yrs. until you're young enough to enjoy retirement. 

You party, you get ready for high school, 

become a kid, you play, you have no responsibilities, 

you become a lil baby, you go back into the womb, you spend your last 9 months floating.... 

and you finish off with an orgasm!

Now thats hat I call living"

Accept what comes

"Accept what comes to you totally & completely so 
that you can appreciate it, learn from it & then let it 
go." ~Deepak Chopra~
