Managing Our Emotions
Knowing that we can manage our emotions, and in fact leverage them for energy, is the first step towards managing emotions.
Female or male, we experience the feminine energy of motherhood when we 1) bring something new into the world and then 2) choose to nurture its development, over time. A child born or adopted, a business created, a book written, a song recorded, a play produced, a pet added to the family: these are just a few of the ways in which we can experience motherhood.
What is the core of motherhood?
Love. Chaos. Joy. Endurance. Pride. In a word, emotion. Through our feminine energy we have the opportunity to experience emotions we may have never felt before, or to experience familiar emotions at a different level. We get to experience these emotions because we care deeply about our literal and figurative children.
What do we do with our emotions?
Our emotions provide us with the opportunity to grow. We have experienced a huge change. Do we make the transition available to us because of this change, or do we attempt to remain the person we were? What do we learn from our emotions? Do we become more mindful, and make more conscious choices, or do we find ourselves feeling as though our emotions control us? We have a choice.
What is motherhood?
Suggested Action:
Over the course of the day, keep a note of what emotions you are feeling. Beside the emotion, note how you could leverage the emotion for energy or insight so you can be more likely to achieve your goals.
