4-SPIRIT Discussion

Emotional Well-Being

Definition:

Emotional Well-Being starts from within the human heart.  Emotions are the language of the spirit.  This language can be felt rather than heard.  The universe responds to the language of emotions as if they were commands.  People can feel this silent language of commands even when no words are spoken and they respond even when they don't know why.

The heart generates an intelligence that is more powerful than the brain.  When the heart is in a state of emotional well-being, this intelligence is expressed as:

  • Connected
  • Hopeful
  • Content
  • Kind Communication
  • Self Awareness
  • Confidence and Resilience
  • Strong Relationships
  • Sound Decision-Making Processes
  • Effective Leadership
  • Successful Families

Heart Chakra

  • Love for oneself and others
  • Relating, relationships
  • Compassion, empathy
  • Forgiveness, acceptance
  • Transformation, change
  • Ability to grieve and reach peace
  • Compassionate discernment
  • Center of awareness, integration of insights

    “Successful families” are most important to me. I believe after the worst day of your life, your family should always be there to comfort you. Successful families are also important for maintaining peace in the household, knowing what to do when a family member is angry or depressed. When I go home after being confronted and bullied at school, I feel much better knowing my family loves and cares for me.

    The most important point to me is “Kind communication”. At home I can see a huge difference between the way my family communicates and the way others my age communicate. Outside my home I’m exposed to hateful words and cussing. I monitor what I say. I notice that people around me don’t have as much control over their words as I do. A bullet point I would add is “Self-control” because I’ve seen people my age experience more stress, frustration, and impatience over seemingly small things.
