Snippet of wisdom 32.

 

In this series I select my favourite, most insightful moments from previous episodes of the podcast.

 

Today’s snippet comes from my conversation with Dr John Demartini, the world-renowned specialist in human behaviour and featured expert in the film and book "The Secret".

 

The snippet I chose from that conversation is about mastering our emotional state. I asked Dr Demartini how we can improve our ability to be reflective, rather than react to our emotions and perceptions out of unconscious reflexes.

 

I hope his answer is as insightful for you as it was for me!

Dr. John Demartini explains that emotional reactions signal incomplete perceptions. Infatuation and resentment are due to a bias that skews our understanding, causing inauthentic behavior. Emotions serve as feedback to restore balance and encourage full awareness. By acknowledging both the positive and negative aspects of our experiences, we can achieve emotional equilibrium. Reflective awareness, as opposed to reflexive reactions, allows for thoughtful responses and a balanced state of mind. DeMartini emphasizes the importance of recognizing traits we admire or despise in others within ourselves to maintain authenticity and achieve a state of grace and gratitude.
