We label "physical" and "chemical" agents that make us ill as toxins yet we never admit to ourselves that there are also many "toxic" emotions that also make us ill. In this article I would like to expose some of the "emotional toxins" we willingly carry inside us and also discuss why we give them such immunity.

Firstly, what emotional toxins am I talking about? Well if you reflect on which emotions make you feel uncomfortable, distressed, undermine your energy and your emotional/physical health you will likely add some of the following to your list:

1. Anger

2. Guilt

3. Shame

4. Worry

5. Fear

6. Jealousy

7. Loneliness

8. Anxiety

Your first reaction to such a list might be that "Well these are normal human reactions to life's circumstances and therefore part of the human condition". In other words, you likely consider them not as "toxins" i.e. things that are foreign to you, rather you likely think of them as a normal part of you.

The very fact that you have such a perspective suggests that you have never actually stepped back and asked yourself why you have these in you at all.

If you start to ask such questions you start to uncover some very interesting answers. Answers that sound strange to the average person.

For instance, let?s take "worry" as an example.

So why is "worry" inside you? You might say that:

Worry helps prepare me for unforeseen circumstances that might be harmful, hence

It protects me from getting hurt, hence,

It keeps me safe, hence,

It makes me feel secure, peaceful, calm and relaxed.

So, in summary you have come to the interesting conclusion that:

Worry makes you feel safe, secure, peaceful and calm.

A rather interesting and strange conclusion when you know that "worry" actually makes you feel anxious, uncertain, afraid, vulnerable, and not in control of your life.

So you see, the "hidden belief" is not true, is it? Yet, you have been carrying it around inside you without ever really looking at it. What is the consequence to you of carrying around such a false belief around inside of you?

Well, it "anchors" or "holds" the worry, a "toxic emotion" inside your mind/body. What is the consequence to you and your life of carrying this toxic emotion inside your body? Well, if you look closely at what the worry does to you I think you will start to recognize that it is draining your vital life energy and therefore "killing you"!

How are you feeling right now?

You might be surprised that with such a startling realization you are probably feeling better than you thought you would feel. If so, this is because you have just become conscious of your situation and becoming conscious has made you feel more in control of yourself and your life. This is always associated with a good feeling.

Why have you held onto these erroneous beliefs for such a long time? Well largely because, over the span of human history, there has been a lie that has been propagated about who human beings really are. One of those lies goes like this: "Worry is a normal human emotion".

You likely grew up with this belief and never decided to look at it more closely than you have today. As a result, for most of your life you have been a potential victim to having this "toxic emotion" undermine your life.
