Thought Adjuster: “You have heard the [[expression]] ‘to be bent out of shape.’ It indeed depicts well how people feel when they are undergoing some [[emotional]] storms. They [[feel]] like a tree tossed around by strong emotional winds. They [[sense]] they are losing ground — their sense of inner [[peace]].
“Indeed, quite frequently during your days your [[thoughts]], the [[words]] of others or current [[events]] bring to your being some emotional discomfort. If you do not live with [[awareness]], they can get the better of you, [[confuse]] you and destabilize you. You let them wreak havoc with your emotional wellbeing and feel like a leaf, powerlessly tossed around by the winds of these [[moody]] emotions.
“Yet, if you see them for the tricksters they are, you will be able to disempower these subtle [[attack]]ers and prevent them from ‘bending you out of shape.’ The [[questions]] to ask yourself are: ‘In which emotional shape am I?’ ‘Am I strong and resilient?’ or ‘Is my emotional [[immune]] system weak?’ If you answer ‘yes’ to the last question, the next question to ask is ‘What am I going to do about it?’
“The best way to address unsettling emotions is to look for their [[antidote]]. Indeed, each emotion can be dealt with by activating its positive [[nemesis]]. [[Gratitude]], for instance, will disarm [[depression]], as it has an emotional black belt.
“Rather than allowing lower [[emotions]] to sneak their way into your [[being]] and call the shots, remember that you are the one in charge of yourself. By your [[free will]] choices, you can claim the upper hand in these emotional battles. Surely, some of them are brutal, yet, you are equipped to deal with them. Do not allow them to knock you out! Stay on your feet by being on the alert and your awareness will be your best ally.
===Closing===
“Monitor your [[thoughts]] and [[feelings]]. Which one do you feed? Which do you [[starve]]? By using your [[discernment]] and your inner [[guidance]], you can calm the inner [[storms]] and cast anchor in welcoming [[harbors]].”
