Contact and connection with purely physical felt awareness
Our body has its own clear language that we often ignore
because we immediately crawl into our head in search of explanations,
reasons, causes and solutions.
We then overrule what our body offers and indicates as a feeling.
Felt feeling is the natural language of the body. Our body ‘knows’ what we cannot reach with our mind and emotions.
Felt feeling can become a powerful resource.
By distinguishing the language of that feeling from the interpretation of experience,
meaning and assessment, it gains its own expressive power.
The feeling in the physically felt perception endorses and stimulates or warns and advises against it. Your body lets you know that it is okay or that something is wrong, that you better wait a while or go for it right away. That there is green, red or orange light.
Reaching out. Withdrawing. Being in your center
Feeling when you need closeness and are open to reaching out and
approaching, to coming close and meeting, to giving and receiving.
Feeling when you close down and shut yourself off. People regularly need to withdraw and shut themselves off. We then do well to distance ourselves and keep the world outside of us for a while.
Withdrawing without paralyzing or ‘bolstering’. Without softening or ‘armoring’ ourselves and hardening in that.
We can stay centered in our center. Staying well with ourselves amidst the
surrounding of stimuli, influences and events.
Various circumstances require us to mobilize or optimize our available vital energy. For example, when
•We lack the energy to take action.
•We are unable to sustain and continue an activity.
•We want to complete what we have started.
•We are too exhausted and need to rely on our residual strength.
•We need to de-focus. To take our attention away and keep it away from
disruption and distraction.
Becoming aware of attention disruption
Which distracting or disruptive triggers cause your attention to be lost?
Becoming aware of the sources of disruption offers a step towards maintaining or restoring
attention and energy.
What you pay attention to grows
We strengthen our capabilities when we can devote and maintain the focus of our attention to nourishing vibes for a longer period of time.
Noticing and absorbing nourishing connecting vibes
Nourishing vibes are available in abundance within all sensory channels. They connect you with life qualities and resources. How to orient and direct your attention to them? How to absorb nourishing connecting vibes?
Emotional Intelligence
Relationships
Emotions provide information and insight about relationships. They are a kind of inner
compass. Emotions "speak" to us about how the environment affects us and how we react to it. About the quality with which others treat us and how we relate to ourselves and to the circumstances.
E-movere
E-movere. Emotions move outward. Unfortunately often towards panic, destruction and violence.
We can give a different perspective to emotions that give a burdensome, (self) tormenting or
accusatory charge when thinking about them, such as guilt, shame, fear of failure, self-doubt,
insecurity ... We can place them in a framework with a view. Emotions become intelligent when they offer a stepping stone and open access to clear, nuanced, empathic and self-caring thinking. Focused on constructive reflection and action.
Safe signals
Noticing both the feeling of safety in your body and impending insecurity in the environment are closely related to emotional intelligence.
We need safety in pushing boundaries and in order to optimally use our capacities and (new) possibilities.
