Understanding Intense Emotions -- How to Manage Today's Heightened Levels of Stress
 Mashubi Rochell

Today's world is changing at the most accelerated rates ever,
and our bodies, minds, emotions and spirits are all being
affected by these larger changes. Have you noticed recently that
you're experiencing more intense emotions? Many people are
feeling a heightened sense of emotional intensity, so we are
seeing more incidents of disruptive outbursts and behaviors, and
also more positive emotions related to expanding love, that are
inspiring people to take more risks within their interpersonal
relationships, and in relation to important life choices.

The human heart is growing larger on a spiritual level, expanding
beyond its perceived small boundaries of focus on the self. The
growth of technology and the process of spiritual evolution on
the Earth have created unprecedented levels of communication
between people, and also between humanity and the planet Earth
that we live upon. It has become clear that our previously self
oriented behaviors have created multiple planetary crises that
must be addressed. Each of us is being called by the time we live
in, to step forward into greater self responsibility and a
greater willingness to join with others to find solutions to our
common problems.

As the spiritual evolutionary impulse continues to transform us
and to open the hearts of humanity, we are also seeing increased
incidences of the worse of humanity as well. We see shocking
examples of negativity expressing itself in large and small ways,
which seem even more abominable as we become more spiritually
aware and more sensitized to the world around us.

This process which seems so harsh and difficult is known as the
process of purification. As greater levels of spiritual light
manifest on the Earth, the light acts both to open the heart and
open spiritual awareness, and it also acts to illuminate what has
been hidden and separated from the light of spiritual oneness.
When the negativity is released, it floods our awareness and
feels like it will never end. This is the most difficult part of
the process, which we are in the midst of right now on planet
Earth.

Once the flood of negativity has subsided, we can begin to be
able to feel the greater love, light and freedom that results
from being cleansed at a deep level. The end result of the
process of purification is a life that exists in harmony with
oneself, with God, and with all of life. This process is
happening both individually and on a global level, so that
humanity can live at peace, in harmony with God and with all of
life.

Most of us carry within ourselves pain which we endured in our
younger lives, or that we are aware of from within our hearts. As
the spiritual atmosphere of the Earth becomes more illuminated,
we may feel these emotions in a more heightened way. It could be
a constant sense of anger, or despair or grief, that seems to
pervade our consciousness no matter what is happening in our
daily lives. It may be that little has changed in our outer
lives, but suddenly we are beset by all these feelings which seem
to emerge from an endless well. Or, we may have endured
unexpected life crises which trigger deep and painful wounds that
feel like they will never be healed.

These intense emotions that are surfacing right now are a part of
this larger movement happening on the Earth. Your inner being is
a pure and divine child of light which carries within itself the
inner knowing of what needs to be healed within you. If you can
hold the awareness that the emotions you are feeling are a part
of a natural healing process, then it becomes easier to breathe,
and to remember that you are feeling the emotions but you are not
your emotions.

You are a precious and beautiful soul, created in God's image
with infinite care, to share something special with the world
that only you can offer. Allow your emotions to pass through you
like water, with trust that they will pass. On the other side of
the storm is a new tomorrow with infinite possibilities that
exist within God's loving embrace of spirit. You are deeply
blessed with the gift of God's life, for a divine purpose. Trust
this and follow your innermost hearts calling. Your body, mind,
emotions and spirit will find a new harmony and alignment, and a
new level of peace and inner fulfillment.
