MeditationWhat is emotional detoxication and why it matters?

There is an increasing interest in dealing with toxic emotions, both consciously and subconsciously. What does it exactly mean? How do we know if we have destructive or toxic emotions? Have you ever felt pain in your temples or your stomach? Many known authors agreed about amygdale as storage of destructive emotions, they are placed on the level of temples. What can we do about it?

Nowadays, the word “detoxication” is usually perceived as body detoxication and there are lots of programs addressing the issue of eliminating toxins from our body. In the same manner, there are plenty of techniques that aim to manage our emotional dysfunctionalities. Main mental toxins are emotional in nature, if there is no destructive emotion attached to the thinking process, the process itself will not be stressful. Therefore the power of toxic emotions depends on our capacity to channel and control these emotions during the thinking process.

What does it mean in the real world? It negatively impacts the quality of our life, makes the work harder and it complicates interpersonal relationships, whether they are business or private related.

How this? Well, the more we are stressed, the more we are desperate, angry or sad in continuity or from time to time, our flexibility decreases, our perception changes and even a small problem of some kind looks bigger or at least irritates us more than it could be expected.

Therefore, many business people search for ways to release destructive and damaging emotions on a daily basis. One of the ways to deal with this is regular exercise. However, physical recreation can only reduce or eliminate some kinds of stress and negative content. As life goes by and as we are constantly facing those situations and as we get older,  we realize we need more time to recover, and sooner or later we realize that physical exercise alone is sometimes just not efficient enough.

Hence, we can say that although physical exercises are beneficial, they are simply not always enough to deal with toxic emotional content. What is recommended is complementing physical exercising with mental (meditative) work. What matters the most is how do we feel in our inner-self, not only how we react to the outer world.
This is where the quality of life is and this is why we created MyVincha app emotional detoxication program.
