EMOTIONAL NEUTRALIZATION PROCESS

I know, Im late..... So sorry but have had a lot on my plate the last week. But here it is........

There are no quick fixes for emotional imbalances that require healing!!!  Healing is an ongoing process. However, there will be moments when we must do something to provide ourselves with temporary relief and release from negative experiences and emotions.

These suggestions are offered not as a quick fix, but as a process by which you can find temporary relief from the experience of a negative emotion.
Most things offered here can be done in sixty seconds and less.

Our next blog posting is about ANGER.

Yes, we all feel it, some more than others.  It is the response to built-up frustration, the experience of having one's sense of personal power denied or infringed upon.

Anger also is a result of loss.

So, how do you handle ANGER?, do you stuff it? Blast someone? do you lie to yourself and others, saying you are not angry when you are? 

KEEP POSTED.

Lots of love Melanie xx
