We need to talk about stress, anxiety, and fear. These difficult, yet motivating emotions are dominating our air waves. The energy is all around us. We want to respond effectively—we certainly don’t need to add to the intensity—so we all need to build our emotional regulation skills.

Let’s talk about big fears, as well as the deceptive little fears that sneak into our lives and show up in our behavior, interactions and ability to make choices. Stress levels are off the charts. As people on planet Earth, we face many real fears. If we are going to get through the level of upheaval that we are experiencing, we all need to bring out our best skills.

The energy of the United States only feels united in the chaos and discord that is setting the tone. When our environment takes on a certain energy pattern, the frequency pulls us in.

Emotions are energy is motion. When we experience them, they either move through our body or they get stuck, creating pockets of emotional debris that impede the flow of energy through our system.

Our life experiences, the thoughts we have about them, our emotional response, and our belief system, all come together in our body. The body is our vehicle and it carries the impact of our life to date, for good or for bad.

Negative emotions and negative thoughts have a different energetic frequency than healthy cells and tissue. Because of that, stuck negative emotion can distort the organs, tissues and cells that surround wherever they’re stored in the body. They change our body chemistry and affect our physical structure.

When emotions get stuck, they fester until, ultimately, they interfere with our functioning.

Whatever gets buried gets ugly.
