Transforming fear and bitterness – it is possible

Today’s Show Up! Journal power words: I believe that every emotion we experience is, at its heart, a form of energy (think electrical impulses in the brain).

That energy can be used to fuel emotions (like fear, like jealousy, like bitterness), or it can be transformed. Energy in its pure state is just energy. It has no plus no minus, as it were. It exists, but it needs direction.

Certainly, we can move it into the realm of feeling our jealousy, our hatred, our anger. But, to quote Yoda, “That way lies the Dark Side.”

Instead, we can take that energy and change it. With our will we can transform it into fuel to create, to build, to envision, to inspire and that very action will also transform us.
