What are Trapped Emotions?

What's the deal with emotion?

We are all beautiful, immortal, perfect beings of light currently experiencing what it feels like to be in a physical vessel, our human bodies. However these bodies come pre-packaged with a huge range of emotions that we have to learn to navigate from very early on. And we are not always successful at dealing with the ones that don’t feel so good.

When we find ourselves in a situation that causes us to feel an unpleasant emotion, most people usually do one of two things: we either remain in that state until some other emotion comes along to replace it, or we push it away so we don’t have to continue experiencing it. Regardless of which choice we make, that emotion is going to remain in our bodies because we have not appropriately dealt with it.

Where does emotion originate?

Now for a little theory…

• Everything in our world is made of energy. It doesn’t seem like it since we don’t walk through walls, but down to the smallest part of us, there is light energy (this has been proven). So, emotions must also be energy.
• All energy has frequency or vibration, so emotions do also.
• Every organ in our body also has its own vibration or frequency (also been proven).

Putting 2 + 2 Together

When we experience a feeling, the frequency of that feeling ignites energy motion in our brain. This often results in a change in the chemicals & processes in the brain. The brain then sends that frequency through the body to find its match in an organ or other body part that matches that frequency. This is where the actual emotion is generated and experienced by us. For example: the emotion of grief is felt in the lungs, and anger is stored in the liver. These understandings exist in many healing modalities and cultures around the world.

How do emotions cause symptoms?

If the emotion in question is not processed correctly (we chose not to deal with it), it will become trapped in our body, and it will become a blockage or imbalance in a specific spot. These imbalances exist in our meridians, the rivers of energy that flow through our bodies and keep us vitalized. Just like an obstruction in an actual river can divert the flow of the water, a blockage in our meridians can affect the flow of energy to other areas of the body. A significant number of blockages will eventually cause noticeable physical symptoms in the body.

How bad can it possibly be?

Most people (depending on their age) have hundreds, possibly thousands, of trapped emotions. We have been collecting them our whole lives, including in the womb. We can also absorb trapped emotions from others we come in contact with without even knowing it. We are constantly sharing our own emotional energy with others, unknowingly. We also have trapped emotions that were inherited genetically or culturally. With the ease of collecting such imbalances, it should be no surprise that we often have energy imbalances in our bodies.

So what can I do about it?

Thanks to effective healing modalities, like Emotion Code, these emotional energies can be released relatively easily. Once the blockages are removed, and energy is flowing more freely once again, our body’s natural healing ability can kick back in, leaving you feeling better emotionally and physically.
