How Emotional Energy Affects Happiness
Emotions are energy in their purest form.
Refusing to feel or accept your emotions causes the energy to remain stuck in the tissues of your body.
This can cause a multitude of physical problems, such as back pain, headaches, intestinal problems, autoimmune system disorders, thyroid problems, cancer and more.
Nerve cells are dispersed throughout the body during the period of gestation.
These cells become part of the major organs of our body.
This is why we have "gut feelings" and "heartaches.
" These nerve cells are part of the system your body uses to sense and interpret emotional reactions.

Changing your limiting and negative beliefs increases your ability to be happy and it improves your physical health as well.

" "I'm a loser.
" "I'll never amount to anything.
" "Nothing will ever change.
" Change the way you think about yourself, and you change everything about your life.
