I am an extremely charged person and a very emotional being due to my high sensitivity prone to capturing everything around me. One of the weaker captures that I am working on at the moment, is emotions. I have a strong inability to detach myself from them at times. I feel that at the moment I am becoming more in tune with this, by applying practice into service. I know that I can’t keep flowing along and seeing each experience as new when I know deep down why I get completetly tied down by emotions, and than forget how I really am. I have been meditating which is something that I have never fully acknowledged as meditation in my own mind, it is just relaxing. I have been meditating with a purpose, to lift up my energy higher and to be more centred and aligned.
As mentioned I’m highly sensitive and with this comes a lack of strength at times, especially when an emotion overwhelms me, and messes with my flow. This flow is my energy, and I notice that this happens the majority of the time and I know now that I need to work more on how I experience them, and understand whether it’s really how I am or a diversion. Like I mentioned in a previous post:
Emotions
are
a pull
to test you.
Once known
feel
them
and appreciate
your essence
through.
Let them
become
you
and they
cloud
and drain
you.
This is true, as everytime I experience some kind of emotion which I know is weakening, I just let it in and it drains me completetly. What I also seem to do when under a vulnerable emotional state is attract people who are on the lookout for energy because they lack in it themselfs. So because I’m an extremely charged being, and prone to the capture of everything around me, these people enter my life and try to feed off my own energy. That is another aspect that is part of aligning energies and understanding emotions for me, and I am starting at the origin in order to facilitate my clearing through this consciousness.
I notice that when one is within emotions an imbalance is present, especially if one does not know how to deal with their own energy under the emotional experience. This happens to me when I become the emotion, rather than just let it pass through. I really don’t know how to deal with it or clear myself from that emotion when I am within it, so I am choosing to find a way to start at the core and work from that. For me the work has always been cleared at an inner level, taking into account all the layers.
I know that this greater awareness will resolve my biggest struggle that I have had for the past 10 years or so, and that has been one of the most known reflections in the relationships I have been involved in. It’s amazing what we learn from ourselfs in our experiences, and the lessons we choose to reach for the greater consciousness of our world.

Hi Robin,
Thanks for the kind words and passing by.
I’m highly sensitive too. I think a lot of creative people are.
Sounds like you’re on a great path with your emotions!

Dear Leah,
Thanks
It is interesting that emotional people are highly creative – as they (we) use that gateway because it is easiest to channel how we feel.
I realised that I had to do something about it, as I didn’t want emotions to overwhelm or cloud me anymore.
I believe emotions are one the most valuable tools that we are given. When you can learn to utilize them as the perfect guide towards well-being, personal growth cannot be denied.

Dear Nea,
Yes, they are valuable to their own extent of use. I think it is important to understand yourself through them properly.
Thanks for sharing your insightful message.
Great blog and very nice post.
Aswani´s last blog ..Get ready to chat with strangers on Imeetzu
Thank you Aswani.
That is very much appreciated.
i don’t know should i call it as gift or not..
but from my kid time, i learn to control my emotion by myself..
my father death, really hit me and hit me back. i lost my may for some time.. because at that time i only eleven years old.. i can’t accept it.. i just can’t.. i think God take him way to early.. and then I look at my mom and my sister and my younger sister.. they all crying.. and i say to myself.. why i should be like them.. i should be better than it.. i control my emotion, i cry a bit.. but then i silent my self.. no cry, no talk.. to make sure that i can hold my emotion deep down.. start from that day.. i can control my emotion.. what ever happen to me, sad thing or happy thing, it same to me.. when it sad things i accept it.. keep it in.. and then just let it go.. when happy, i cherish a bit then let it go..
i think i can’t or maybe i don’t want to hold certain emotion/feeling way to long.. because it could damage my thinking.. that why i always let it go.. start with fresh on..
Dear Izzat Aziz,
Thanks for sharing your experience, that means a lot as it is very personal to you. I can understand it must have been very difficult at the time, but at the same time made you stronger as a person and made you react to future experiences in a positive light.
That’s an insightful way of being – just releasing the emotions/feelings and not holding on to them. Very inspiring to all that read.
hi your post have great ,deep effect,emotions are great help to make a person truly alive ,but sensitivity also delivers pain of more awareness then others ,even some time we are like alone in end less desert and tears become blood coming from heart,thanks a lot for beautiful words for my blog take care
Dear shabanaali,
I think the strong emotions are signs of what is going on in our own world, depicting different ways we engage in experience and how we confront our own inner selfs. Or of course come from other people-as each emotion is not necessarily a creation or mirror of ourselfs. It is definetly amazing how we are within emotions, that’s for sure!
Thanks for stopping by.
That’s a good point, but I feel we as humans don’t need to experience deep emotions to feel alive, as we are already living.
My pleasure on visiting and commenting on your blog. I reasonated with it well, and it is always wonderful to drop by and meet a new being.

Dear Pam,
Thank you for returning my visit.
It was a pleasure to visit your blog.
Your art is amazing, and I am happy that you are back to expressing yourself through the art medium.
I love meditating…I use the cd’s by Bellaruth Naparstek at her website http://www.healthjourneys.com I was introduced to them by the hospital I had surgery at years ago.
Dear Debra,
Thank you for visiting my site, and providing us with the very useful link on meditating music.
Dear Ana,
Thank you for your comments the work is my own.
A lovely blog it seems that your an ‘empath’ ..I am define myself as sensitve as opposed to an empath but to protect myself I have to keep surrounding myself in golden bubble otherwise I am all over the place, I also do Qi Gong which is really good but sometimes you can see them coming. I found this site
http://www.eliselebeau.com/empathProgram.php which is a free training programme (i just started) I hope it helps. Let me know .. Happy AEDM.

Dear Marilyn,
I used to do Qi Gong, but I stopped a while ago. I realised that I just needed to be more in tune with my own breathing than anything else, and that has worked on my part in my own journey of self-discovery.
Thanks for visiting and providing the link.
I couldn’t agree more, Ana. I’m emotional and sensitive, too, and I could sense this about you. And I learn from you about how to express and embrace the emotions.
Dear Janna,
Thanks for stopping by.
It is wonderful to see you here.
I am happy that you are learning this from me, that is an amazing thing to learn from another being.
Hmm.. I also felt that way some time ago.. looked like I just absorbed all the emotions from the people around me without having control to choose which one to keep and which one to just pass through.
Those emotions were just sinking me down.. but somehow I feel like I need to feel them.. in order to learn how to balance myself
Indah´s last blog ..Enslaved By My Pet
Dear Indah,
It is wonderful to see you here.
It has been a while, I hope you are well.
That’s an insightful way of looking at it, by feeling you are understanding what is yours and what is not.
Thanks for stopping by.
my story is kind of izzat aziz.. something similar…
not every aspects like my dad is still alive and healthy but as he lives ,
whatever it may be happiness or sadness it is similar to me even today…
great blog… thanks
That is so true. I don’t feel that it is necessarily bad to be guided by emotions but you need to learn how to handle them when they come.
I remembered one of Oscar Wilde’s quotes…
“A man who is master of himself can end a sorrow as easily as he can invent a pleasure. I don’t want to be at the mercy of my emotions. I want to use them, to enjoy them, and to dominate them.”
