Hoarding and Clutter -
3 Amazing Tips to Release Negative Emotions
By
Beverly E Taylor
Have you ever found yourself overwhelmed by emotions,
especially when decluttering? Have you ever felt so
overwhelmed by negative emotions that you cannot function?
Many times my clients have told me that they experience a
triggering emotion that results in a barrage of past emotions,
which can be absolutely overwhelming. I will help you identify
what triggers your negative emotions, and I will give some
tips that may help you release those emotions. Ultimately this
can free you from the negative emotions that have been holding
you prisoner.
A key point is that there are distinct triggers. Those
triggers vary for each individual person. Different triggers
may bring up the same negative emotions. For example, one
client felt negatively overwhelmed when she lost her job of 25
years. Then she felt the same overwhelming negative emotions
later in her life when her plans fell through for the evening.
I have noted that the same trigger may manifest completely
differently in different people. For example, one of my
clients had very painful memories of her childhood abuse. She
manifested her negative emotions by comforting herself with
food to the point that she became super morbidly obese to the
size of more than 800lbs. Yet another client who had very
similar childhood abuse manifested her emotions by being
overly controlling and a perfectionist to the point it was
painful and destructive. Similarly, yet another client with
similar childhood abuses manifested her negative emotions in
cluttering and hoarding.
First Step: Identify Your Triggers
It is important to get in touch with your emotions. It may
help you recognize early on the negative feelings that you may
experience each time something goes on in your life. What are
those negative emotions? What do they feel like? Where are
they at in your body? Where are they from? How did they get
there? And most importantly what do I do to change them?
Tip One: Switch to Positive
First identify what is not pleasing to you. Now I would like
you to take a deep breath and as you exhale, think about what
exactly in your day was really good. Good you say? Yes good!
There has to be something in your day that was good. Make your
mind find a positive. At least one! Now think about that and
breathe. After you have had a moment of positive emotional
charging, if you still feel you can't shake those negative
emotions. I have a little tip that has helped so many and it
may help you too.
Tip Two: Negative Emotion Release
This form of release is similar to a purging of the soul's
most inner negatives. Find your nearest and dearest kind
listening ear and let them know that they do not need to fix
anything. All you need is an ear to listen or a good journal
to write in. Now reach deep within yourself and search the
inner most part of your being. Identify all those emotions
that have kept you imprisoned deep within your soul.
These negative emotions seem to loom just below the surface
waiting for something or someone to come along and stir them
up. Now talk the person's ear off or write away in your
journal. Get it out. Release all those things from past to
present that are triggering these emotions and identify them.
Go on an emotional release for around 5 minutes. Any more may
just be too overwhelming for you and for your listener too.
And I am sure by that time your hand will be getting tired
from writing if you are using a journal.
Tip Three: Close Your Eyes & Pull Out The Negative Emotions
From The Body
It is best if you can be a place where it is quiet and you can
relax. Gently close your eyes. Take a deep breath and relax.
Now think about where you feel the negative emotion. Imagine
what size it is and what color it is. When you have located
it, imagine you reach within yourself and begin to pull it
out. Continue doing this until you feel the release. You may
feel a shift of emotions. You may also feel exhausted or
emptiness. If you feel emptiness, I suggest you fill that
emptiness with love and light. This can be done whenever you
need to and can take just a few moments. Feel free to
experiment with this technique and adjust it to fit your
needs.
Now take a deep breath and see if you feel a little lighter.
You may even experience a feeling of overwhelming joy. You may
even feel a sense of freeing the soul from its shackles. You
may notice that you can breathe deeper. Your head, chest or
body in general may feel lighter as well as your mood, too.
The "Wandering Butterfly Clean Up Technique" is a wonderful
way to make it easy to clean up. It is excellent to use when
you don't feel like cleaning up, yet you get something done!
