One of the most powerful things you can do is own the stuff that happens within you...Get used to, expect it.
It's yours. You can view it as a disability or a pivotal point in your life for positive change.
What's it going to be. You decide.
You don't have to like it but just like a cloudy day..it will happen so you might as well make the most of it.

Pain is good for being empathetic with others, but we are useless if totally immersed in emotion.
That's why we're given a head and a heart and why we use terms such as "emotional intelligence".

Meaning we don't discredit our emotions but we do use our heads to decide on how to appropriately respond to them.

Many people have things from their past to overcome.

A fantastic way of moving forward is to focus on those things you know you do want to grow towards & take some daily or weekly action in that direction. It doesen't have to be a giant leap, in fact quite the opposite...Small steps will do.

Consistancy is they key thing to be aware of.

Do you know how to check where you're holding energy in your body?

Your mention of fight or flight is a great example of this..

Think a certain thought and you get a certain rection in your body.
So... "What to do?"

Consider the thoughts that bring you calm...

If you are fearing or rejecting the moment...of course you'll feel squirmish & want to run or fight/struggle in some way.
Now.
If you decide quite firmly & gently that your day to day goal is to respond to life in a more grounded way, you'll need to see the value in each moment that comes your way.
only you can find it, but realise when the anxiety and old shit is coming up and have some alternative choices about how how you'd like to respond...

Let me ask you something cricket.

If tomorrow morning you wanted to make a delicious meal for yourself, would you begin by searching through the garbage to see what old scraps you had lying around???
No! Of course not!
So be careful not to give yesterdays garbage power in todays creativity.. Get it? GOOD!

By the way, the good thing about choosing to take small steps forward, (just the same as walking) it actually takes you further away from that place of trauma, and in doing so, with enough distance it gives you a completely different perspective.

You only have so much time in this life and each day.....So what are you going to allow yourself to focus on???

No matter how empathetically experienced you are, or how spiritually in tune you are, the challenges will still come. Better arm yourself with some tools for dealing with such moments.

Good luck my friend.
There is no perfection...only progress
Any progress = growth.

Try this simple method called o5.

My problem, too. In the past years I had too much emotional (emotional., not sexual) expectancy and crashed. Now I am aggressive. does it show?

Unihipili is a cricket.

Hi Cricket,

I would like to bring to your attention a wondeful healing method that removes trauma (emotional blocks) from the body. It's amazing. I've had 3 sessions of this and have actually just taken level 1 and 2 to become a practioner of this. The method is Holographic Memory Resolution and the creator is Brent Baum. Amazing stuff. He has therapists trained in this all over. I am sure some one could be recommended. His website is www.healingdimensions.com, if you'd like to read more about it.

Best of luck!

Sadly the previews changed on httpo://lulu.com/astrology but you can search something like discreate+rtrrt+o5 on groups.google.com basicly it is an easy technique to perform and it does everything
what might be difficult to accept is that one can do anything right now
people have been told they can not or are not meant to etc etc
so illness is allowed but cure is viewed with suspicion
like in the BIBLE:) where Jesus almost apologises for curing, right?
Try DISCREATE DEATH with O5 and live happily EVER after
hahaha, enjoy, I SE YOU WILLLL (the 4Ls are intentional)

Mentally dissolve the block. Imagine it as you wish, then dissolve it. This is all.

There are a couple of methods that can help you.

Remember that your unconscious mind has a good intention with the behavior you are showing. The problem is often that it is a behavior that might have worked for some time in the past, but that is contra-productive now.

As long as your unconscious mind thinks that this is still the way to go it will do it. You need to give instructions that are easy. This means that you need to focus on how you would like to be. And how would you know that you have reached that goal? How exactly would it be to have the behavior that you would like to have? Stop thinking about what you fear and you don't want to do and start thinking in detail of where you want to be. Right now you have a very detailed explanation of why everything is the way it is. Fact is, reasons will not do anything else than keep you on that track that you don't like. It doesn't matter what the reason is, because you have all the resources inside yourself to solve this and be the most excellent person you want to be.

I do give private sessions, so if you think something like that might be able to help you, check out: www.patrickbeine.com
