Emotions are like an eco system inside of you.  They are always giving you feedback and letting you know whether you are being honest in the world, authentic.  Letting you know if you want to say yes … or no or even letting you know if there is unresolved trauma inside of you wanting to be resolved. Unfortunately, a lot of people don’t want to hear their emotions so they distract from them by gambling, drinking, taking drugs, shopping. There are a million things we do to distract from what we are actually feeling. We sometimes de-press our emotions. We push them down and flatten our feelings our so we don’t have to hear what they are trying to say to us.  Feelings can guide you to have the best life possible if we listen to them and understand what they are trying to tell you.
