Non-Violent transportation
My partner, Jennifer Connell and I (Donna) spent a week out in California last year finishing up our Chopra Certification for Deepak's Chopra's holistic lifestyle program, perfect Health. One of the most compelling topics we covered while the intensive training was how to chronicle more effectively with ourselves and each other using 7 Steps to Emotional Clearing from Marshall B. Rosenberg's powerful book called Nonviolent Communication. Since much of the material we discuss and teach others on a daily basis is how to train oneself to be more mindful through witnessing our feelings, decisions and choices we share this process with you to help you gain way to more peace within yourself.

The Seven Steps to Emotional medical allows one to go through a step by step process to way medical when upset due to some event that leaves them feeling hurt or that their needs are not being met. Embrace the steps, come to be customary with them and start to apply them. As you bring the process into your awareness you will begin to see that you can accept your own feelings without judgment and do some perfect self reflection, within which you will find more peace and joy in your life.
The Seven Steps
1. Take accountability for what you are feeling. When you find yourself reacting emotionally to other people, it is ordinarily because they are reflecting some potential you have not fully acknowledged within your own nature. When you accept accountability for your emotions and cease to be a bundle of conditioned reflexes, you will no longer be vulnerable to the opinions of every person you encounter.
2. Identify the emotion by saying, "I feel__________." It may be angry, sad, hurt, disappointment, empty, hopeless, etc. As clearly as possible, define and chronicle what you are feeling.
3. witness the feeling in your body. Emotions are thoughts connected with bodily sensations. Our thoughts trigger bodily reactions, releasing chemicals that have a life of their own. The physiological expressions of stress cannot be instantaneously shut off. Rather, the power of the emotion must be dissipated b before the emotion can be processed further. Just witness the feeling.
Allow your attention to embrace the sensation in your body. By simply experiencing the bodily sensations, some of the emotional fee will dissipate and you'll be able to hear the message the emotion is carrying.
4. Express the emotion, in underground to yourself. You can write about your feelings or speak them out loud. Keep a journal just for this purpose. Allow memories of similar situations to come to the exterior and write about them too.
Use language that accurately conveys what you are feeling. Allow yourself to express all you need to about the situation.
5. Issue the emotion through some ritual. bodily movement is ordinarily best for this. Go for a walk, bat a pillow, dance freely, listen to loud music or do rapid breathing - whatever that will help you extraction the emotion from your physiology. Allow your body to detoxify. Retort the Issue of the emotion as you are doing the activity.
6. Share the emotion with person who can listen empathetically to you without trying to solve your problem. Known listening is a skill that takes practice. When working in a group setting to solve problems you can use a talking object such as a stone, a feather or a stick to remind yourself to speak in fact and openly. When you feel perfect with your communication, pass the object to the next person and allow that person to express him or herself.
7. Rejuvenate! Do something nice for yourself. Get a massage, listen to music, buy yourself a present, eat a tasty meal - nourish yourself. It takes Known awareness and a commitment to personal growth to go through the process described above so reward yourself for your good work.
