Emotional Fitness

Life is full of wonderful surprises and nasty gifts. We process these encounters with our biologically inherited apparatus. We're not doomed to our biology. We can find techniques that assist with regulating over or under-stimulated reactions to life. I call this Emotional Fitness.

Emotions can be powerful--so powerful we may avoid them and the people expressing them. Empathy is gained through openness to experience, one on one contact with the feeling experience of others.

We move through stages of behavior, thought and emotion. Each phase impacting the others. We work to change by modifying any (and sometimes all) of the stages.

We get beastly urges pushing for harmful action. Listening to these desires that hurt destroys our lives.

The breathe brings life to the body, feeding the heart and brain. Mindful attention to this life giving process can change our lives.
