Effect on Emotions

  • Mind or a thought in motion, (thought and feeling) are inextricably linked. My bias is that thought occurs first, although we may not see it, or be aware of it.
  • So I have learned that when I'm in a particular mood, whether elevated or deflated, if I check in as to what the last thought I had, I can find the thought that set up the feeling.
  • Now the thing is, once you have the feeling, that feeling then will summon up more similar thoughts, which is why we tend to cycle up or down.
  • But there are different words and labels that we put to describe human experience. So we think of thought being from the neck up.

Thoughts on Breathing

  • Breathing is not sufficiently part of my mindful practices. It's something I need to work on. I tend to reside in my spirit and in my mind.
  • My work is to develop more awareness in my body and to be more conscious and mindful of my breathing. So to the point of embracing vulnerability and sharing your truth. That's work I still need to do

Suggested Resources

Bullying Story

  • Bullying, especially emotional and verbal, often stems from deeper issues of self-worth. 
  • In therapy, cases arise where individuals, including men in marriages, tolerate bullying due to low self-esteem. The key question is: Why do I endure this? It ties back to personal narratives formed in childhood—fear of judgment, shame, or disappointing others. 
  • True self-esteem isn’t about external validation but embracing vulnerability and authenticity. 
  • Many mistake "acting strong" for strength, but real confidence comes from self-acceptance. Seeking approval excessively weakens one's core identity, making them more susceptible to manipulation and bullying.
