People all over the world want to have a healthy and joyful life. Unfortunately, this world is full of stress, and everyone is more or less under some stress, weather it's from work, finances, family (spouse and children), social interpersonal aspects of life, etc. For example, 1. A traffic jam on the way to work and, as a result, starting to worry about being late and scolded by your boss.  That’s stressful. 2. Your boss suddenly asking you to work overtime when you've already made plans for dinner with your girlfriend. You start to worry about your girlfriend misunderstanding.  That’s stressful. 3.

Your wife suddenly having something come out and asking you to take your daughter to class, but you've already made an appointment with a client.  That’s stressful. 5. Your physical examination report saying that the blood sugar was...

The goal of stress and emotion management is to reduce negative emotions in order to live a healthy, joyful, and happy life. Implementation of the method is through continuous learning and practice, observing and analyzing your negative emotions, practicing converting negative emotions into positive thinking, and pumping positive energy into your subconsciousness to correct conscious habit, or emotional response. The key is continuous learning and practicing. Let's start with the negative emotion of anger, since anger is easier to perceive than other negative emotions.

Emotion is the accumulation of similar experiences to form a conscious habit. When there is an external stimulus which triggers the conscious habit, the emotion emerges. In of our lives, we are subjected to insults, coercion, injustice, deception, demand, etc., causing psychological scars which are internalized in the subconsciousness. Meanwhile, today's society and media are full of negativity such as greed, lust, fight, hatred, suspicion, etc. Every day, we absorb these negative energies unknowingly and record them in the subconsciousness. As a result, negative conscious habit are formed, producing negative emotions and making us feel stressful at times.   That’s why relieving stress has become a very important issue.

Stress and Emotion Management 3 - How Does Emotion Develop?

Everyone has their own consciousness. The function of consciousness is that we can think, judge, and feel every day. Emotions are said to be a relatively strong conscious response. To understand how emotions are developed, we must first understand how consciousness works. Consciousness controls five entrances and two exits. The five entrances are the eyes to see, the ears to hear, the nose to smell, the tongue to taste, and the body to touch and feel. The two exits are speech and body movements. All the experiences of consciousness are stored in the subconscious mind and form the standard of conscious judgment and response. The accumulation of similar experiences will form the conscious habit and emotional response. For example, I run into a well-known friend and know who he is immediately without really having to think because there are a lot of experiences about interacting with this friend in my subconscious.  According to these experiences, I might like or dislike him...

WHAT IS STRESS? Your reaction of negative emotions provoked by something happening that you don’t like or isn’t as expected. What is Negative Emotion? The famous psychiatrist David Hawkins has shown through more than 20 years of research that human life energy will fluctuate with consciousness. He mapped human consciousness to the range of 1 ~ 1000 as follows.  In his report, it mentions that currently 78% of humans have an average life energy below 200. Since we were young, we have been taught to be better than others, to be outstanding, to have higher grades than others, to have more talents than others, and to win in sports. Everything is self-centered and selfish. Then we wanted our next generation to become somebody, so we teach our next generation as we were taught, then the next generation and so on. What we are fighting for is the highest score in the negative energy world - pride and corn. Because of this, we are trapped in the negative energy world, suffe...
