We transmit our emotional states and thoughts unknowingly, shaping the very fabric of our existence. The emotions we harbour, whether openly expressed or buried deep within, have a significant impact on the people who enter our lives and the events that unfold around us. On a psychic level, both repressed and acknowledged emotions play a critical role, guided by the principle that "like attracts like." For instance, if we have love within us, it will fosters more love in our lives, if we have anger, it will begets further anger, and if we have sadness, it will perpetuate further sadness for us. Our lives are molded by our emotional aura; it is through the act of letting go of negativity and embracing the present moment we can cultivate a positive aura and manifest a life filled with joy. The Opposite of Surrendering is suppression, expression, and escape - In suppression, we push feelings down and put them aside - In expression, we vented, verbalized, or embodied our feelings - In Escape, we avoid our feelings through diversion. - These strategies, while temporarily relieving, ultimately exacerbate our emotional turmoil over time and obstruct our path to a fulfilled existence.
