Emotional energy by Celeste

An amazing lesson from Celeste on Emotional Energy which we are studying this week.

Chapter 11, The Mystery of Sex Transmutation

Have you ever spent time with someone who is depressed?  Over the years I have had friends who are always down about something.  They hate their job, and get a new one and it too is terrible.  They always have health issues, there is always a crisis with a family member, they are frequently broke and the list goes on.  Some of these people have been in this state for decades.  People like this don’t have a lot of emotional energy….all that they have is tied up in resisting all of what they see as the bad stuff happening in their life.  There is nothing left to create anything positive…and the result is they attract even more negative events…it is a downward spiral.  Having experienced my share of depression I know how this feels.

It takes positive emotional energy to manifest and create what we want in life…in fact Hill tells us that the definition of genius is someone who “has discovered how to increase the intensity of thought to the point where he can freely communicate with sources of knowledge not available through the ordinary rate of thought.”  He goes on to say that these individuals have access to creative imagination which is the link to Infinite Intelligence and the result is hunches that guide them.  But to get there requires the brain to be stimulated, and this requires positive emotional energy. Of course positive self talk and keeping a list of positive emotions readily available will support this effort.

The opposite of being depressed, or sunk in any of the negative emotions, is living in the now. When you truly live in the now you flow with what is instead of resisting, you are focused on what is happening at the moment rather than regretting the past or fearing the future.  So if you are stuck in a slow line at the grocery store instead of being impatient you can strike up a conversation, or help someone else unload their groceries or help entertain a fussy child.  Or if someone lashes out unexpectedly you can decide they are having a bad day and choose not to get caught up in their drama, which means not reliving the experience over and over and judging them for whatever caused them to react as they did. 

The positive emotions associated with this state stimulate the brain to function “on this exalted plane of thought, (in which) the creative faculty of the mind is given freedom for action.  The way has been cleared for the sixth sense to function. It becomes receptive to ideas which could not reach the individual under any other circumstances.”   Quite a pay off…not only do we get lots of hunches to propel us forward, but life is a whole lot more fun.
