Emotions Dissected..!

We all know 'Emotions' are a tricky aspect of being human. They are the language of the soul; subtle, elusive and cryptic. Often they defy the rationality of the mind and the logic of our society. While at times this can be scary and confusing we need to learn to embrace our emotions because they are the key to our happiness and understanding ourselves fully.

Dr Elisabeth Kubler-Ross defined 5 natural emotions as Grief, Anger, Envy, Fear and Love. In these 5 emotions , one emotion we can feel it as postive & rest are negative emotions. Infact no emotions are good/ bad or positive or negative.

When you scratch the surface to explore the full depth and purpose of these emotions, you might just come to see them a little more clearly for what they are - beautiful tools for cultivating one’s personal development. After all, it is the repression of these emotions that produces the negative consequences we often wrongly associate to them.When we explore this underworld of emotions we can see, we often supress these natural emotions and make it harmful for us. So it is important to understand these emotions and its bad effects to safegaurd our well being.

 'GRIEF' when we supressed becomes chronic 'DEPRESSION' , likewise 'ANGER' becomes 'RAGE', 'ENVY' becomes 'JEALOUSY', 'FEAR' becomes 'PANIC', 'LOVE' becomes 'POSSESSIVENESS'..

 Happy & Peaceful moments...!!
