About This Video: 
One of the themes that has come up quite a bit with my students who are trying to lose weight is the complete avoidance of negative emotion. Many of them believe that we are supposed to feel only positive emotions and be in a constant state of happiness and bliss.

Unfortunately, life doesn’t work that way….

In order for us to feel great, positive emotions, we need to be able to contrast them with the negative ones; and when we make a choice to not resist, react or avoid any emotions, on the other side of it, we can achieve real freedom and strength. Listen in to discover how you can learn to balance your emotions and how to get better at feeling every emotion, becoming stronger in the process.

One theme that comes up frequently is balancing emotion.

Many people think things should be good all of the time.  That the goal in life is happiness.

The truth is that life is 50/50.  It is 50% positive and 50% negative.  That is the human experience.  The goal is not be happy all of the time, the goal is to have the full experience of being human.

A lot of times we try to buffer and mask a negative emotion with a temporary fix.  We overdrink, overeat, overFacebook, etc. We use these things as an escape instead of learning to balance the emotion.

When you make a choice to not resist, react, or avoid an emotion on the other side of it is freedom and strength. Willingness to feel an emotion gives you that benefit on the other side. 

The more willing you are and the more able you are, the better you get at it, the less difficult it becomes and the stronger you become, and the less the desire to resist it and avoid is there. 

Our brains unsupervised create a lot more negative emotion than is necessary.
