Emotional Awareness

Listen to "Emotional Awareness" on Spreaker. I heard one of the most incredible conversations yesterday. Howard Stern and Jerry Seinfeld openly speaking about being real with what we feel and how to deal. Jerry didn't have to bring up his daily conversations with a friend but he opened our hearts to the possibility of springing forward to a newer way to handle emotion. For an hour everyday he and his friend do nothing but speak with an open soul. Any subject and every emotion. It made me think about how the world is spinning these days. Instead of instantly running to FaceBook Twitter or Instagram to broadcast how it is we are feeling would we be in a better place if only one person was allowed into your process of growth? Writing that put a pain in my gut. The relationship between Jerry and his friend is a well shaped machine of forgiving energy with an ability to see beyond what's being said. Not everyone can handle that. Somewhere on the path of discovery we were given permission to belt out the emotions with no regrets until someone says "Ummm that was too far." But. But. But. So we revert to social media and come up with creative methods of oh my God. Emotions. We carry a lot of them. But how do you deal with bouts of doubt when what you are feeling is alone? The first step is to trust no one to be a great listener. Bruce Lee once taught martial artists to never reveal their book of survival. Locate a favorite place to walk. A quiet place to listen to the atmosphere. Allow it's energy to move through you. Not into you for future use. It has to move through you and the moment you were blessed to hold onto. The more you learn about how things are presented then stuffed into your soul. The better you'll be when you process all situations by not participating with the negative. Let it move through you so you can move on. It's a choice. One that people will never understand. But in reality who cares and why should they? It's your shoes those feet are stuffed into. Take care of the mind and body putting the weight on those heels.
