The Danger of Toxic Emotions
"Take care of your own emotions and never underestimate them". - Robert Henri
Since we are born, we begin to experience different emotions, all human beings have, however some prefer not to express them, although it sounds pretty crazy, there are emotions that in one way or another hurt us, and we can consider them to be toxic, these emotions can be treated to improve our quality of life and mental health, but the important thing is to know some of them, how they manifest themselves. We have to take into account that these emotions affect our decision making and our mood, if we ignore the magnitude of this, we would have devastating consequences, these are the toxic emotions, which we have to take care of.
Envy - Many individuals believe that there is a "Healthy Envy", the truth is that it is not healthy or acceptable to feel envy for other people, this is not good at all, that individual who experiences such emotion, will spend his whole life with very low self-esteem, without achieving anything, just living the life of that person who envies, not accepting that others succeed and we do not, We have to accept that everyone is looking for a way to achieve their goals, that we are all capable of making our dreams come true, we just have to be constant, perseverant and sure of what we want.
Dissatisfaction - Everyone in life has experienced being dissatisfied with something, whether in our jobs, studies, family, relationship, or even with the situation of our countries, and this is understandable, however, when this becomes chronic, and nothing satisfies us, we see everything in black and white, nothing seems pleasant, we do not feel motivated, even though everything is flowing positively, that's when we have to evaluate ourselves, and see what is wrong, and seek help, because there is a very short step from dissatisfaction to depression. When we are dissatisfied with something, we look for a way to change it, to improve the situation, to motivate ourselves and look for a way out of what keeps us worried, thoughtful, the best thing to do in these cases is to go to a specialist, to talk to someone, to unburden ourselves.
Shame - Let's think about school, when we had an exhibition, we were filled with nerves, and a lot of shame because we thought that if we were wrong our classmates would make fun of us, and we would get a prSource - Pexels.cometty low grade, however, the latest studies by scientists, show that shame, when it is constant, and accompanies us in the course of our lives, it limits us, it becomes a great obstacle, because we can not live to the fullest, nor enjoy our identity, our social interaction is affected, our development as human beings suffers quite a lot of consequences, which we will see reflected over the years. Shame goes hand in hand with fear and insecurity, so to begin to work on it, we need: Know ourselves, accept ourselves as we are, understand that we are capable of anything in the world, and that we are individuals who can achieve whatever we want, no matter how many obstacles appear, we can not spend our lives with shame, afraid to show ourselves, afraid to achieve what we want, let's start to know ourselves, We will know what our virtues and weaknesses are, what our strengths are, when we start working on this, we will see great results, we will see how the shame will go away from our lives, in this way, we will be individuals with more confidence and security, something so necessary to face today's world.
