We already talked about strategies to release tensions and undigested emotions.

Now the next thing you need is to understand the power and energy dynamics in your situation.

If you clear negative emotions but because of the power dynamics you are in, tensions keep accumulating again, it is like a dead end loop you can't win.

So, before you release anything, you want to understand the source of tensions.

You want to pin point exactly how these tensions are created.

Before you release, you need to shift the way you stand in the specific situations which are the cause of the pressure built up.

Rather than going into specific examples, I'll keep it general here.

The solution usually comes in the form of new mind sets, attitudes or boundaries.

Think "Battle plan". You need one if you want to emotionally win!

That's one of the key topics I cover with you in coaching sessions.

PS: by the way, emotional release has always been a big one in our human agenda. If you haven't seen it watch this video:

http://vitalcoaching.com/blogs/m1/2007/05/century-of-self-part-34.html

The video is one hour long but there are some interesting (and funny) release methods described in the first 10 minutes, I think. Go directly to 1:05 (1 minute 05 seconds on the video) for some new release techniques practiced in the sixties. Have a pillow handy!

You heard that before, right?

When someone dies or you have a difficult break up, people tell you: you need to cry it out, you need to release it.

Is this even a good idea?

What if you can't?

What if you built so much power in your system that tears don't even come up?

You might get this feeling that there is still a knot in your mind but don't know how to get it out.

I'll be direct, ok?

You don't need to cry.

You can release an emotion in so many ways and crying is only one of them.

The reason why your friends or GP will tell you to cry it out is because they know that keeping this undigested emotion in you is not good.

Now, you have dozens of ways to get it out and crying is only one of them, really.

Crying is one of the possible emotional reactions to a certain energy.

It is the expression of sadness or emotional pain.

Now, when you are confronted with certain challenging life events, you could as well be responding with a totally different reaction.

Especially for instance if the trigger is an emotional challenge coming from someone.

Imagine that someone emotionally abuses you without reason. It might at work or in your family.

You can cry or you can:

• Fight back!
• Defend yourself!
• Take action to protect your personal space.
• Go to the gym and take a kick boxing class.
• Get angry and promise yourself this will never happen again.
• Put you jogging shoes and go out!
• Have a walk in the forest and let the healing power of nature take care of it.
• Look at the emotion and rather than resisting it, accept it before letting it go.
• Tap on specific acupuncture points to release the disturbances in your energy field.
• Call a friend and share your story.
• Get to the nearest pub and have a drink.
• Get a pound of chocolate Ice cream (I Scream!) and share it with Sarah Jessica Parker and her latest episode of sex in the city.
• Laugh!
• Shout and yell for a while!!!
• Listen to loud music
• Etc!

Some of these actions are constructive and empowering. Some others like overeating, drugs or alcohol are self destructive.

Some others (like crying) are just your best instinctual response to that specific challenge.

If you are looking for new directions, I would definitely try the martial arts or kick boxing approach!

It really works!

These are some of my favorites but as I said in a previous post, writing about it is not the best way to go.

More on this face to face or in another video post, ok?

Now, all the positive release methods have one thing in common: they energize your system!

They activate the flow of energy in you.

This powerful activation of energy is what clears the tension, knot or emotional pressure you might feel.

Once you energize your being through one or a few of these approaches, undigested emotiona are naturally cleared.

That's it!

There are a few ways you can release emotions in you.

You can:

• Exercise
• Sing
• Cry
• Jog
• Create something
• And so much more!

An emotion which is stacked in your system is simply the result of a conflict:

On one side you have an energy which wants to flow.

On the other side you have a mind frame or mind pattern which does not allow this energy to flow.

Usually, when you feel a weight on your mind, it is simply a negative emotion which wants to be released.

What does it mean to release it? It means that your system needs to digest it.

Instead of being stacked in a part of your body or mind it needs to be freed.

Now, how do you respond to negative emotions or emotions you don't like.

How do you deal with emotions like sadness, emotional pain, inner tension, fear, hesitations, doubts, etc.?

Do you offer them more space or do you block them out?

Well, you can take whatever action you want as long as it does release the emotion.

It is simple, right?

You want this emotional knot to be gone.

Something that really works in releasing emotions is any form of physical exercise.

Something else that works very well is singing.

Why do these activities release emotions?

Because they stimulate the flow of energy in your system.

There are many more emotional release techniques you can use but communicating them in an article format is not suitable.

I'll either share them face to face with you when we have a coaching session or I'll soon record a video on the topic, ok?
