#024: Seeds Series Ep. 4: Emotions

Send us a text

Another great conversation with Whitney Kinservik this week! 
Here are the takeaways: 

1.      Emotions are the way our brain gives meaning to bodily sensations based on past experience.

2.     As we think something, we feel emotion, and chemicals are released in our body to prepare us to take action.

3.     Assigning a new thought to someone’s behavior can create acceptance or peace and therefore, change our potential reaction to a stressful situation.

4.     Taking a Deep breath can give you space to think a different thought, which changes the feeling, and therefore changes your chemical make-up.

5.     Focusing on gratitude rather than judgment can change your mindset and your reactions.

6.     It can be more difficult to change your state of mind when you have been in that state for a long period of time. Creating a mindset of possibility for the future can help you begin to change your mental state. If it took you a while to get into the state you are in, it can take you a while to get out of that state.

7.     If you are feeling stuck in your own emotions, Challenge your thoughts and determine if there are other 

8.     Homework: Pick an emotion that you would like to have more of or an emotion that you would like to have less of and start journaling whenever you experience that emotion and bring awareness to the frequency of those emotions. 

Thank you so much for listening it means so much to Whitney and I! If you enjoyed the episode, I hope you will go in and leave a comment and share it with a friend!
