P. 59
If we work on the premise that in our adult lives
we ourselves “ARE” the source of potential
change, it becomes clear that we will need to be
able listen to ourselves without fear and without
judgement.
Our emotions are a powerful, human
commodity. They can be our strongest and
most supportive ally in life, or they can disable
us, leaving us feeling blocked or at worst, out
of control and in pieces.
In my experience, it is never the emotion itself
that’s the problem, it’s our relationship to it and
our ability to listen to this information and
choose what we do with it that will make the
difference between a challenging experience
being a break through, rather than a break
down, a challenge or a crisis.
I know that my deepening ability to listen to my
emotions and to consider every emotional state
that I feel as “valuable information” has created
a way of living that in itself has been completely
life changing.
This is the first in a series of books about the
intelligence of our emotions, each written to
support and enable deepening layers of
relational growth and understanding.
