Emotional Health

Emotions are "energy in motion".
As we become more aware of our emotions, we can tap into them as resources to draw from and live life to the fullest.

When we love our lives we are engaged in meaningful work and activities that bring us joy. Most often these activities bring joy to others directly or indirectly. 
Time goes by quickly, we are focused, productive and fulfilled. 

Let’s make it a goal to move towards living life with meaning and purpose.

Emotional Drains
Emotional drains consume our time and energy and invariably harm us. They deplete us, distract us and prevent us from being who we really are and do what we are supposed to do in this world. 

The more aware we are of these emotional drains, the easier it becomes to ‘kick them to the curb’. 

One root of emotional drains is to look at others with a sense of fear or insecurity. It results in:
  • comparing yourself to others
  • envy
  • resentment
  • gossip
  • no time to engage in enriching activities

There is an old saying “live a life of significance”, when we are secure within ourselves we are not concerned with what others think and do not react emotionally if we are met with disapproval or criticism. We wish these people well and we move on. 

We all have ‘hot spots’.

We all have things that push our buttons.

We often have people that push our buttons. 

As we grow, we realize these hot spots are just getting in our way. While this is human, it is a great time to think about those hot spots and get your ‘armor on’ so to speak. You need to be infused with who you are and what you have to live for. When you are grounded in your own goals and dreams, I can assure you you will NOT let these hot spots get in your way. Friends this does take some practice but it is so well worth it. Think about it, freedom to live your life and not be brought down by anyone or anything.

And that is exhilarating!

Detoxification

Toxic Breathing
An aspect of holistic and integrated wellness incorporates the science of “lipo-mucoids”. It is important to understand “mucoid-sludge”. It is likely that most individuals have heard of mucous, cholesterol or phlegm. This substance is of particular interest to health and well-being or the opposite – illness and disordered health. Substances can exist within the human machine that contain mucous, sticky fatty deposits, unprocessed and undigested particles, toxic components that the body can’t break down and sludge resulting from exposure to certain poisonous or contaminating elements.  
Toxic Circulation
Unified-Field Medicine, vedic science and experts in  integrative wellness (S.R., N.L., R.S., all MD's)  call this collection of sludge “ama”.  Lipo-mucoids, or ama, is also called tau proteins which is discussed in the works relating to the findings and discussion of Dr. Aloysius Alzheimer MD [1864-1915] and Dr. Dale Bredensen. Again, these substances - “lipo-mucoids” or mucoid-sludge, stick to the inside of organs, muscles, the brain and blood vessels. It can include excess cholesterol and fatty lipids within the body as well. Excess “lipo-mucoids” can easily contribute to illness, chronic disorder and premature aging. They can also contribute significantly to aging and erosion within the brain such as dementia-related conditions.   
Environmental Toxicity
Reducing lipo-mucoids (sludge) in the body and mind (yes, the brain is affected as well as the lung and heart) is why we emphasize proper nutrition, adequate exercise and movement, as well as proper rest and removing toxins from the human structure.  

This includes the impact of environmental exposures... the harmful compounds to which we come in contact.

 
When your "pipes" are free from sludge, deposits, and residue -- your mind, body, activity level, thinking and general appreciation for life vastly improves.
