Our emotions need to flow, like the blood flowing through our veins. When the arteries of our emotions are blocked, when our heart is closed, our life lacks intensity and passion, Trying to love without allowing your emotions to flow is like trying to drive a car without any petrol in the tank.

In today’s society, many of us have unfortunately learned from a very early age to block, suppress or deny many of our emotions. Expressing our emotions could be difficult as that could mean you are being looked upon as weird or we could end up being hurt .

We get used to living in a state of emotional inertia, a sort of pervasive numbness which act as a protective shield against suffering, but which prevents us from experiencing the joy of living in the present.

In fact, there is no point in trying to escape from our emotions since they will emerge sooner or later, in one way or another, however hard we try to resist or deny them.

Maria Duval says emotions really exist: they are not thoughts that can be easily dismissed. They are not abstract concepts since they are the use of universal cosmic energy, this fundamental energy which animates us and which certain people refer to as Superior Consciousness, Supreme Power, Creation or even God.

Unexpressed, repressed or suppressed, this energy can become toxic. It surfaces in the form of swellings, growth, clots, tumours, migraines and all sorts of physical ailments.

Maria Duval says that the only really solutions is to take a firm hold on your emotions, to get to know them, take possession of them and learn to experience and express them as and when they occur.
