Emotions and Actions: Technique #1

Many people believe that emotions are to be managed and controlled. Unfortunately, viewing emotions that way means missing out on the true Magic of Emotions and the Power of our Creative Mind. www.explorationinternational.com/emotions.html

Many people are aware that emotions affect our actions and behavior. We feel sad...we cry, we feel angry....we fight, we feel scared....we run. However, not many people know how our actions and behavior can affect emotions and how emotions can propel us therefore into personal growth.  

Even though the most effective techniques for personal growth are very unique to each individual, here are some techniques that you can try in addition to the skills taught in our Emotions Software:

Technique #1:  No matter how you feel right now, breathe in something pleasant that is nearby. (The scent of your clothing, a piece of food that you like, the scent of a candle, the scent of a pet, the scent of a plant.) Do not just smell the item but consciously breathe it in. Take a long breath and notice how your action of "breathing"in something pleasant makes you feel and how your action affects your emotion.
