Is it healthy or unhealthy to numb your emotions?

We are the most indebted, addicted, obese, medicated race in the present world.This is the result and cause of having fear of being vulnerable.

You are the one, who is creating disturbance in your mind. This disturbance will never allow you to be in the present moment with your stronger, bigger, better self of you.

The research says clearly you cannot numb one emotion alone. When you suppress consciously or unconsciously a negative emotion, you do the same with the other part of it.... You cannot just numb grief, envy, anger and expect to feel joy, excitement and peace within you... We numb sadness, and we want to feel happiness, we numb shame, and want to feel proud... Then we look for inner growth .

As a teenager, I remember very well, how I felt angry but unable to feel it, and which led me to disconnect with my body. My parents were very particular, in never allowing girl children to show or express anger. I was told often, " You should not be seen". I had no way , so I had to numb my anger.

This had a huge impact in my school life. As a teen girl, I had severe depression, that no one could ever identify or help me . Fortunately, due to my spiritual inclination and family support, I managed to overcome it.

It's important to allow and embrace the emotions without any judgement. Emotions are neither good nor bad. All emotions have their own purpose. Next time when you feel an emotion, just welcome , sense and allow it to flow through your body, and feel it. The more we resist it, the more it persists in your body cells ( Subconscious mind). By being conscious and mindful , you can choose how to use that emotion . Either to take action or just observing it arising in your body as a neutral energy. It's finally , your meaning or interpretation that transforms that energy into a more purposeful one.
