Emotional Fitness is the muscular
and energetic side of Emotional Intelligence.


It is demonstrably true that every feeling
has its associated muscular shape and energetic tone.


By working with these non-verbal dimensions,
you can concretely change your experience,
which can in turn change your actions,
thereby changing your life.

We begin with a practice that supports all of your "positive" emotions.

It combines the psychological archetype of the BOWL
with classic Qi Gong Standing Meditation.

We recommend that you practice this
before exploring specific "positive" emotions.

Literature as well as common sense tells us that when we think of our feelings our attention moves to our hearts.  And below the surface of our personal experience is the rhythmic movement of our heart's contracting and relaxing. 

It seems natural for us to experience and value feelings associated with the contracting phase
differently from those of the relaxing phase.  It is we who can call them good or bad, positive or negative.  It is we who can encourage the feelings we desire or require.  It is we who can disturb, distort and/ or suppress the feelings we do not seem to like.

And, thankfully, it is we who can transform our feelings, thinkings and movements, thereby transforming our responses to events, people and issues, which can reverberate, influencing the worlds in which we live.

Our methods are based on the classically proven key to success, bring more of yourself to the moment.

WORKING WITH THE MUSCLES OF EMOTIONAL SHAPE
 


From the non-verbal perspective, the experiences of being stuck in an unwanted mood and/or being unable to easily shift into a preferred mood are what happens when the inherently flexible clay of your experiential body becomes too solid and resistant to taking on other shapes. 

Here are two simple, gentle, and powerful exercises for reawakening your natural emotional flexibility and loosening the glue that binds you into unwanted habits.

FINDING YOUR NEUTRAL BALANCE



“You can't know who you are until you know where you are.”
Wendell Berry

Any time you set into motion the forces of change, the defense forces of your habits are also activated.  If the resistance to becoming who you want to be seems too strong, then use this simple and basic practice: noticing, touching, accepting and releasing. It might help to relax the subtle tensions of mind and heart that seem to lock you into an undesired state.
