Crazy, right? You're happy, why would you feel heavy?
No one wants to have bad days, to go through bad experiences. You avoid feeling sad or crying as much as you can, because those are sad emotions that you feel as something heavy in your body. So it's normal to not want them.
But what if I told you that happiness can also be a heavy emotion that can make you sick? And it actually can. Happiness can feel like deep sadness. It sounds crazy. I know. But bear with me for a second.
All the bad experiences that give you emotions of sadness are intense energies that go through your body, pile up there, call all its friends there, and pile up into your tissues. That's when you start feeling heavy, like something is sitting on your chest. Like your heart is being pressed and you can't breath. You feel like something is choking you, almost literally. Or like your stomach it getting tight. All that is from the bad emotions, from the intensity of the energy that goes through your body. And you need to get that out.
You either go to a therapist and talk it out, or you create art and express it through that. You can go scream into a pillow, or out in the nature, where no one hear you and they can't be scared or take over your emotions. You do a sport that requires a lot of force, like punching a bag, boxing, Tae Bo, something that is asking intense training from you.
Ok, so these are the bad emotions that you experience and that create all those feeling in your body. But, there are moments when you have nothing stressful or bad going on in your life. You actually have it pretty good, you're experiencing something really happy actually, and then, all of a sudden, you start feeling the same as if going through some bad emotions. Why? Well, if you don't let all that joy out, it acts inside you the same way that sadness acts. It gets stuck in your tissues, and you start feeling heavy and like something is pressing you, when you think you should feel happy, not like you are being squeezed.
You have to also let the happiness come out. Go run, yell, hit a bag, do something that gets out all that emotion out of your body.
Stuck emotions interfere with the energy flow. It will act like a stopper for energy to go through you, and it will start collecting in the spot where the flow is interrupted. Meditate, drink water, and release that tension by expressing that beautiful intense joy that you are feeling, and re-open the gate so that the energy can flow freely through you again.
A great way to release that stuck energy is to cry. You are NOT weak for crying. You are actually a strong person who chooses to cry and release tension rather than bite the head of everyone around and create animosities.
When I am feeling too full with emotions and stuck energy, I start watching videos that make me cry, so I can release that pressure. An advice, don't choose negative videos, where people or animals are hurting in any way, that will only create anger and frustration and block you even more, not to say that you can pick up on that energy, and you want to create flow and bring good one in, not worst one.
Choose beautiful videos of people or animals that are saved, that went through something and now they are really good, in a really good place. Those will motivate you, inspire you, open up the love path and energy in your body, and you clean yourself up using good stuff this way.
So, yes, happiness can make your heart feel heavy. Choose ways to release that tension and create that flow of energy again.
Take care of yourself beautiful!
