Suppressing Emotions With The Solar Plexus Authority
Suppressing your emotional wave is NOT the answer. Yes, some people will find it overwhelming. Yes, some people won’t want to dive into the depths of your wave with you.
Society has taught us to be unemotional (so much so in the U.K. where I’m from).
Yet, you are here to be authentically you. You are here to discover what it means to be you and accepting and loving all for what it is to be you.
Your emotions are something to be accepted and loved. They are something to be shared.
If you have the emotional authority, feel your depth of emotion. Allow it to shape your perspective and your awareness. Choose to show up as YOU.
I explained this to an Emotional Projector client recently who kept herself small. She would be internally outraged and upset wanting to cry, yet stopped herself every time. She suppressed her emotional depth.
I posed the question and idea to her that what if the key to an authentic and aligned invitation was to show how you truly felt. What if by someone RECOGNISING and INVITING you to share how you felt would lead to them truly seeing you even more deeply.
What if, instead of saying “I’m fine” when someone asks you, you said “I’m feeling outraged” “I’m feeling so sad”. Through sharing that authentic interaction, perhaps you spark an aligned series of events… “why are you feeling sad” … so you share a small insight … they then ask and invite you for more information and depth … you then share … and at the end of the conversation they say “gosh, you really have given me food for thought. I didn’t realise before you shared. Would you be open to helping us create change here?”
The moral is, own your emotions. Own your depth.
Most of the bitterness is often around sharing with someone who cannot take in your emotional depth in that moment. So following strategy and authority, and checking in with their strategy and authority, is what will ensure successful interactions.
Don’t play it small. Shine.
