Emotions are energy in motion and when this energy is not allowed to flow freely the emotion becomes trapped in the body. When emotional energy becomes trapped (when we refuse to feel) this sends a signal to our body that we aren’t safe and we build up defense mechanisms in order to protect ourselves from emotional harm or damage.
There can be thousands of trapped emotions in our bodies, causing a variety of imbalances. The nervous system is directly affected by our emotional state of being, so clearing and releasing emotional energy can result in a more balanced nervous system allowing us to feel more connected to others and ourselves, ease inner anxiety, allow for more joy, and may even relieve physical discomforts in the body.
This healing modality is extremely helpful because it can be used not only to release your own trapped emotions, but the emotional energy that has been passed down from generations, or that has been absorbed from other people.
By releasing the trapped emotions from the past, you start to connect with your true energetic nature allowing your energy to flow with more fluidity.
Emotion Code
The Emotion Code is and energy healing method that was developed by Dr. Bradley Nelson. It uses muscle testing to help discover and identify trapped emotions in the body. Once these emotions are brought to the surface they are finally recognized allowing them to be seen and heard, and can then be released.
Most everyone carries around trapped emotions from the past. Our society in general has not yet learned how to handle our emotional energy. Emotional energy is not always easy to feel, many of us have experienced past trauma from childhood or have been shamed for feeling. Emotions are difficult to navigate since they affect us on both a physical and energetic level. Our typical go to is to avoid them all together hoping they just go away. Just because you no longer think of your past doesn’t mean it hasn’t left an imprint on your system.
