Tired Of Emotional Baggage?

– By Dr Nav Ropra.

The educational system requires us to be proficient at each level before we are admitted to the next one.

From school to college to university, we go to classes in order to learn lessons.

Our knowledge and experience at that level is tested and we demonstrate our abilities and mastery by passing examinations at that particular level.  There is another system which is linked to our growth and development called the emotional system.

Remember what it was like to be young and care free?  A time without the concerns of money, relationships, family life or job?  In the process of growing up, decisions are made and these decisions impact everything from that point onwards.  The word decision comes from the latin word ‘decidere’ which means to cut off any other possible scenarios and produce a final choice.  It may be choosing a career, accepting a job role, getting married or a major financial investment.  It is this ability to decide and then to live with that decision which is what I am addressing here.

There will be times when you make decisions and the results do not go as you had expected or planned.  They either exceed your expectations or they may fall short of them.  In this way, a decision can lift us up, or it can weigh us down.  Both are forms of emotional baggage.  The effects of any decision can last for days, weeks, months, years or even decades.

‘The word decision comes from the latin word ‘decidere’ which means to cut off any other possible scenarios and produce a final choice.’ 

We can become emotionally stuck with something which we perceive as a bad decision.  When this happens, we remain in that particular emotional class until we can understand the lesson we are getting from that decision.  Our lives are on hold as we are trying to deal with something which we have not had any formal training in – our emotions!  Over time, these emotions impact our psychology, our physiology, our relationships and our finances. We forget why me made our original decisions and repeat different and alternative scenarios in our minds.  The ‘what if” scenarios can become a constant source of distraction.  This is energetically draining and people tend to age quicker when living this way.

‘When this happens, we remain in that particular emotional class until we can understand the lesson we are getting from that decision.’

So what happens to us when we become emotional?  Our lop-sided perceptions of what has happened or going to happen cause us to become emotional.  We do not see life in balance and these lop-sided perceptions weigh us down mentally, physically and spiritually.

How many times have you heard someone talk about the same thing over and over again dragging the same emotional baggage everywhere they go telling everyone they meet? The event(s) continuously repeats in their minds as their psychology and physiology attempts to equilibrate any lop-sided perceptions and learn to love them.   Over long periods of time, this can be very destructive and can lead to emotional devolution.  The moment they are able to balance out these lop-sided perceptions they are able to become free from this emotional revolution and they have emotional evolution. They have learnt that lesson from that emotional class and then they are free to grow and learn the next lesson in the university of life.

When you truly dissolve emotional baggage, you can then see the balance and order in the Universe.  Decisions neither elate or depress but inspire you.  You are grateful for that decision making ability and are able to have greater understanding of cause and effect.  As we grow older our ability to get back on track with our life’s purpose becomes quicker.  We are more able to see things as on the way and not in the way.

‘Free from this emotional revolution and they have emotional evolution.’
