Emotional Energy

Be quiet enough to hear and honest enough to listen

     We are starting to understand, as a humanity, the concept that everything in this universe is energy. And I also think we are starting to understand just how powerful emotional energy can be as well. Neuro-biologists estimate that 87-95% of all disease is caused by the quality of our "thought-life".
     Think about that for a minute.  Many of us are unhappy at our jobs; Gallup polling estimates 99% of us work in fields in which we are not gifted. We are stressed out about money, fearful of the economy. We are at war and many fear we are at a tipping point of global disaster.We have high divorce rates, low self-esteem and we are disconnected from our true Selves, our Gods and our natural way of being. It's not hard to see how emotion could be killing us through stress, cancer, heart disease, diabetes and obesity.
     Neuroscience, like ancient Toltec wisdom, says that the remedy to this is very simple. Both teach that mind and body are connected by emotion. Both teach that the way we feel, the way we think and the way we live are all choices. And we make those choices at every moment of every day. What physics has done for the yogi philosophy, biology is doing for Toltec truths. If you seek to find a larger truth, integrate the ancient wisdoms with modern science. If you seek to understand and master this life, seek to understand and master your Self.
