Good news! We went to see “Kung Fu Panda 2″ at the matinee yesterday and it was FULL of positive EQ messages! Giving, honor, loving, finding “Inner Peace”, working thru childhood belief systems, confidence, teamwork, etc., etc. I love it when EQ goes Mainstream, and our kids get GOOD examples/lessons, for a change!

"Don't put the key to your happiness in someone else's pocket, keep it

in your own."

"Happiness isn't about waiting for the storm to pass…   It's about learning

how to dance in the rain" 

"Spiritual progress is like detoxification. Things have to come up in order to be released. Once we have asked to be healed, then our unhealed places are forced to the surface." – Marianne Williamson

We call it "Processing your Feelings".  We find them, we acknowledge them, we allow them, we FEEL them, we release them and thus, we heal them.

Try it.  Go where you’ve been avoiding going, inside yourself.

Who or What are you REALLY Angry at?  core level.  probably from your childhood or teenhood.
Who or What REALLY Hurt you, the very most?  from the gut, where does the core of your pain lie?

Maybe it’s in a number of places… ok, pick one and get started.

You don’t NEED anything or anybody in order to heal your past, your pain, your unhappy childhood, your depression, your anger — to live a life of freedom and joy.  You don’t NEED a thing — except some courage, and willingness, and maturity.  You’ll get thru it.  You will.

Give yourself the biggest gift you can — allow yourself to really FEEL your negative feelings — all by yourself if necessary — so you can live free, from this day forth.

you can do it.

Never apologize for showing true feelings. When you do so, you apologize for the truth. – Benjamin Disraeli, 1804-1881

"Never apologize for showing feelings. When you do so, you apologize for the truth."

– Benjamin Disraeli, 1804-1881, British Statesman and Literary Figure

"Be an all-out, not a hold-out."

- Norman Vincent Peale

You know how people are often trying to Hide their feelings from others?? Well, much of the time, I actually WANT people to know what I’m feeling!  It’s more real, it’s more honest and they can treat more appropriately if they can see/hear/feel what I am feeling.

Let there be many windows to your soul, that all the glory of the world may beautify it.

"It doesn’t matter how you come to it…just that you do: Finally recognize that no one is responsible for your life but you."

- Oprah Winfrey

If you blame, whine, complain and otherwise victimize yourself, you are giving your power away.  Take control of your own life by taking full responsibility for who you are, what you think and feel, and especially, what you do.

We all have choices, often more than we first think we have.  Choose to be powerful, not a victim of the world.

To do this, you will need to have access to all your feelings — anger, fear, courage, sadness, joy and personal power.  Use them wisely.

"War" is a mighty strong word… but it’s a strong message, too.

Ok, we’re going to war.  We wage a:
war against Shoulds.
war against perfection.
war against harshness, and cruelty, and unnecessary pain.
war against emotional ignorance and cluelessness.
war against separateness and isolation and making enemies.
war against aloneness and loneliness.
war against rage, replaced with good clean anger.
war against depression, allowing the release of energy that free us to live and breathe.

war against guilt: teach me, but don’t trash my life.
war against shame: stand tall and be counted, for you are one of God’s children.
war against molest and abuse: OPEN YOUR EYES and see the horror and devastation of your uncaring actions.

war against hunger: in a land of plenty.
war against stupidity: where we do NOT support our elected leaders.
war against cruelty: disguised as ignorance.
war against brutality: in any form.

We’re marching for Peace.
we want peaceful borders.
we want our leaders to TALK and keep TALKin’ until you guys work it out so that everyone wins — NO MORE WARS, EVER!!!

we want LOVE to be the governing body.  the focus.  the goal.  the intent.  the glue.
we want HAPPY and FUN to be good things, not an annoyance or irritation.

we want Therapy and Personal Growth and Coaching and Emotional Intelligence to be honored and respected for the Amazing changes we are making for, and to, the world — changing hearts, one person or a small group at a time.

We war against emotional pain, by bringing awareness to the masses, and we fight for peace, and joy, and love, in who we are and all that we do.
