What is situational emotions?

Have you ever been watching t.v and a commercial came on that tugged your heart strings? Made you tear up a little, then the commercial ended and your back to normal?

That would be the start of situational emotions. Something that caused a specific set of emotions. From happy to sad. Can be anything.

Let's take it a step further. Say you have a bad break up. Your mood doesn't resolve for a few weeks or longer. You start questioning if your ever gonna get back to normal. A lot of people go through this. A few weeks to a few months then you are back to normal.

Now in extreme cases people will keep these emotions with them for years or start to develop depression or other mood disorders. If this is the case I recommend seeing a licensed professional.

I personal don't offer the knowledge and expertise to help with cases of depression or other mood disorders. If mistreated it can make matters worse

I have depression myself which I see a consumer for, but I also use my own teachings to overcome moods that are caused by say getting fired or a break up.

My experiences are all personal. I use methods that have worked for me. Look forward to answering any questions!

Autobiographies, self-help, inspiration, anything that takes focus to read. It's easy to get absorbed in a sci-fi or romance novel. The second part of focus, is meditating. I do two forms of meditation. Sitting still allowing thoughts to enter and leave. The second is active meditation. Think spo...

Value ( Who are you?)

What do you bring to the table? If you were asked what do you value, how would you answer? Family, friends, money, honesty, integrity, love? Those are great things to value! But, what about yourself? What value do you bring to your own life? Are you honest, determined, inspiring, goal oriented? When I speak of value, I'm talking about aspects that make others say I want to emulate that. The are intrinsic in nature. They hold no value other than to your character. " Our character is what we do when we think no one is looking" H. Jackson Brown, Jr. When you think of yourself don't think self-worth, think value. How you see yourself, how you treat yourself, how others treat you. This is your value. You are of high value. Their is only one of you. Start respecting that.
