The constructivist approach to emotions has profound implications, especially for those high in emotional intelligence. When we view emotions as discrete, unchangeable categories, we limit our ability to understand and manage them. However, seeing emotions as constructions as mixtures that we can influence and adjust empowers us. It suggests that we are not at the mercy of our emotions but rather can shape and refine them.
Emotional intelligence, therefore, is not just about recognizing and labelling emotions accurately. It’s about understanding the ‘recipe behind each emotional experience and knowing how to alter the ingredients to create a more desirable outcome. This capability is crucial in personal development, leadership, and interpersonal relationships. It allows emotionally intelligent individuals to be more influential, in control, and present in their interactions.
The ‘cake baking’ rule of emotions underscores a vital truth: our emotional world is malleable. By mastering the art of mixing and balancing our emotional ingredients, we can craft a more fulfilling and controlled emotional life. This perspective not only enriches our understanding of emotions but also opens up new avenues for personal growth and effectiveness.
Transformation
Your previous experiences of difficulties and emotional distress are currently being eliminated from your energy. If you are worried about how to progress in the future, understand that having a strong desire and openness to change is sufficient, and the Universe will handle the remaining aspects on your behalf.
Currently, you have the opportunity to transform something that seems undesirable into something highly valuable, akin to the process of alchemy. In your own situation, this transformation involves improving your physical well-being, financial prosperity, and establishing meaningful relationships with others.
We have the power
Once we acknowledge that our inherent essence is to exist in a state of harmony, which is our inherent entitlement, we, as physical beings, own the inherent entitlement to exist in our authentic essence, to encounter profound joy, and to feel harmony and satisfaction. Consequently, our perception of the universe undergoes a significant transformation, as we now possess authority and control. We still have power.

Power of Dreams by Jesse Lyon
Whenever we are visited by someone in our dreams, we need to consider the literal meaning, but then go deeper to think about how that person in our dreams is teaching us to connect with a new character that lives inside us. — JESSE LYON, LMHC, LYON COUNSELING “
“By learning to understand and accept all of the different characters that live inside of us, we become more complete as a person and can then love others with greater empathy and understanding,” Lyon says.
It is important to remember that dream interpretation is highly personal. The specific meaning of someone appearing in a dream depends on factors that are unique to you. Examining your dreams and trying to understand their meanings, both literal and symbolic, can give you greater insights into your own thoughts, emotions, and relationships.
“That’s the power of dreams! To help us grow and understand ourselves in ways that we could never do while awake and, from these insights, find peace within ourselves and carry that peace to others,” Lyon says.
Living in the Now not in the Future
Living in the now is so important, Part of what can fuel existential dread is fixating on the past and future, which can lead to feeling like nothing will ever get better. When we come back to the present, we can feel those negative sensations subside. Let’s be positive, mindful, and happy with what is with us now and where we are now rather than thinking where will I be in the next 2 or 3 years, which causes anxiety. We can make plans but not be so rigid with it.
Does anyone know what will happen with us, even though we have a daily planner. Some things just happen , which are not in our control, but we humans are always trying to be in control of everything in our lives. Why don’t we let go , Let God. Surrender to the divine. Have faith in the process, in the plan of the universe. Keep doing your karma the right thing. Have no attachments to the results. Have patience . The plan of life will unfold in the divine timing.
Stop breaking your heart
Stop breaking your own heart by trying to make a relationship work that clearly isn’t meant to work. You can’t force someone to care about you. You can’t force someone to be loyal. You can’t force someone to be the person you need them to be.
Sometimes the person you want most is the person you’re best without. You got to understand some things are meant to happen, but just not meant to be. Some things are meant to come in your life, just not meant to stay.
Don’t lose yourself by trying to fix what’s meant to stay broken. You can’t get the relationship you need from someone who’s not ready to give it you . And you might not understand WHY NOW, but I promise you your future will always bring understanding of why things didn’t work out. TRUST ME. Don’t put your happiness on hold for someone who isn’t holding on to you.
Some chapters just have to close without closure. Straight up.

Ho’oponopono, the four phrases I LOVE YOU. I AM SORRY. PLEASE FORGIVE ME. THANK YOU.
Ho’oponopono, the four phrases I LOVE YOU. I AM SORRY. PLEASE FORGIVE ME. THANK YOU.. According to the Hawaiian practices and most spiritual practices, we have a spiritual body, mental body, and emotional body that are all a part of our physical body. We have the three stages of the minds the subconscious, conscious, and super conscious, and we are all at different stages. Ho’oponopono helps to connect the three minds and the process in healing the world by healing oneself. So, the healing part has to come within us. The negativity that comes within us comes from the blocks in our minds. Blocks are caused by our own thinking and feelings. Ho’oponopono means: to make things right” it’s a powerful mantra for the four affirmations to bring you to the zero limits by clearing yourself to a clean slate. Everything that is your reality is something perceived by your mind. If your mind has problematic thoughts, it can create insecurities, but it can also solve them too. By repeating the 4 sentiments that help give you full control over your life. It all depends on your approach and attitude towards clearing your conscience by chanting the mantra of four affirmations. These 4 powerful affirmations hold a lot of healing strength when chanted with feelings and emotions. By holding space for the client and holding space for each other, by openly expressing the feelings and exchanging these special words, we are both clearing each other and cleansing our consciousness. It helps us to let go of all the negative feelings that are arising, and it brings peace of mind. This technique it allows one to develop a working relationship with the Divinity within and learn to ask that in each moment, our errors in thought, word, deed, or action be cleared and cleansed. This process helps to get freedom and complete freedom from the past when you clear yourself, taking responsibility for your own actions and thoughts. No talking can change anyone’s mind, and you have to erase the memories from the data in your subconscious mind, and that’s the key to true freedom and peace. When you clear yourself, you also clear the client that has come to you.
When we say: I AM SORRY saying sorry and admitting responsibility is the important part of healing. We are responsible for everything that has ever happened to me or anything wrong that I have done or witnessed. In this first step, we accept the fact that all the wrong things started within us. PLEASE FORGiVE ME. It’s asking for the apology from the universe. It doesn’t matter if we have wronged or not. It’s a cleansing method that removes negativity. It helps us to move on in life. THANK YOU by showing gratitude towards the universe is an important part of the healing process. Saying thank you for all the forgiveness, thank you for all the changes within you, and thank yourself for being who you are. Gratitude is a powerful emotion, and repeating it helps to bring positivity in your life. I LOVE YOU. We are saying this to ourselves, to divinity/ God, to our body, to our environment, to everyone that we have created energy with. Love is a powerful emotion, and with love comes layers of warmth and security. Giving love is a caring and affectionate emotion that helps in the healing process. Repeating the HO’OPONOPONO mantra allows deeper concentration and reprogramming of the subconscious mind for better healing. When you feel sorry, thank you, and love deeply, it helps to get rid of all the clogs within us. This process gives a lot of positive energies.it helps with a better understanding of your inner self. I believe this mantra can help one miraculously with self-growth and actualisation. By chanting the mantra, you feel the self-love and self-forgiveness, which gives us freedom and peace.
Forgiveness
Poem by Brenda Twohy:
” When I say I forgive you, know this I did not bury the hatchet. I have the hatchet in my hands, and I am building myself a new house.”
You’re acknowledging the past and deploying the learned knowledge to construct a new version of yourself and how you view your situation.This transformative kind of forgiveness can be a powerful step in your journey.
Forgiveness isn’t forgetting and pretending it never happened. Forgiveness is about embracing the people and a situation as it is, meaning you can let go of the pain to move on while honouring the pain that you’ve experienced.
Life decisions
Life is all about the little decisions you make. past decisions can not be changed, but every new day is an opportunity to make the right decisions for now and the future.
