Learning How To Release Emotion

By Deborah Moore


Releasing emotion is a necessary part of life. One needs to be able to express oneself in order to say how they are feeling. It could be anger or fear, but to get to the next stage, one has to be vulnerable. Of course, this is never easy when you don't know how to release emotion and you have never been taught how to do this.

A lot of people become depressed, anxious, shameful or angry. However, they remember what their parents have told them. Parents tell children to stay strong. They tell boys not to cry and to be a big boy. This will have a negative impact on them as they grow up. They believe that men are not supposed to show their feelings.

However, it is impossible not to show your feelings. You simply have to get upset when something traumatic happens in your life. You can't block this out of your life. When you have been told not to be angry, this is also something that you believe. However, it is a natural part of life. It will build up inside of you.

However, this is not enough. You still need to know how to express your feelings. You can't go and pick up a paint brush every time you feel yourself becoming upset and remembering that you are not allowed to feel this way. Eventually, when you do go to therapy, you discover it is not only the psychological issues that you get rid of, but also the physical pain.

If something traumatic happens as a child, it can be too difficult to talk about it. This is understandable. A child like this will turn to other forms of entertainment which will distract them and they will block out the trauma in their lives. But it will be in their subconscious. They won't forget about this. It will still be there as they grow up.

When you are angry and you deny these emotions, you will walk around with this rage building up inside. It can lead to depression and anxiety. It can also lead to physical symptoms, such as headaches and other aches and pains. As soon as you begin to deal with these issues, you will begin to see how you will start to improve.

People find that focusing on the moment and being distracted from past experiences can be very helpful. This will include meditation and mindfulness. There are apps available which help people to stay calm should they have a bad experience when out and about. This is a convenient way which makes you feel more confident in which you are going to get over the challenge.

It is necessary to be more practical about helping someone like this. They will typically be negative about themselves. They need to love themselves, first and foremost in order to love others. They also need to recognize what the problem was and how it affected their lives. When they can begin to accept themselves, then they will begin to be more positive about life and those around them. This is part of the process. Relationships will improve as will their overall lifestyle.
