Hello Friends

Emotional health is such an important facet to a balanced life however every day we face all kinds of emotional challenges. We deal with hurt and rejection and in many cases, we just bury them very deeply in our subconscious. So, the way in which we manage these emotional challenges, determines our overall health and satisfaction with life. In this issue of Great Health GuideTM, there are several articles that discuss the effects of strong emotional feelings and how these can impact on our overall well-being, satisfaction with life and our general happiness. The article, Why Forgive Others? allows an insight into the gift that comes from forgiving people who have hurt, abused and rejected you. In The Power of Belief, the author writes: “If you grew up with abusive parents, you might believe families are hurtful and unloving. If you do not challenge this belief, you will never be able to see your current life and family for whom they are in the present time as loving, caring and supportive.”

So, our beliefs allow us to accomplish great things but also can hold us back from ever achieving what we are capable of in life. The article, What Are You Avoiding?, provides further insight into how to deal with strong emotions.

“Emotions that are supressed can bring sickness to our bodies that is totally all encompassing. By processing emotions, we are given the space to process our feelings and engage with them.” Finally, Toxic & Abusive Relationships, shows that it is possible to thrive after a toxic and abusive relationship. Obtaining the right support and counsel will help you reframe your thoughts about yourself and relationships. I trust that these articles will provide a sense of importance in finding ways to deal with your strong, and sometimes harmful emotions.
