TRANSCRIPT
From time to time, you're going to feel sad. And you're going to wonder what to do about it and who to approach and how to get around it. Sadness is part of nature, and it's a bit of downtime so that there's three. Let's talk about this for a minute. There's three levels of sadness. There's physical, mental, and spiritual, or let's call it for that for the sake of a better word, emotional. Physical sadness comes when the when our physical body runs out of juice, and that's typically the possibilities typically because we're not Well, typically because our immune system is breaking down. We might be over exercising, but typically the most common reason for sadness in the physical body is that we're living in fight flight we're living in got to where we live in a got to state of mind we're on red alert, so we're always nervous. We're always on the edge. We're always worried that disasters going to come or something's gonna break or we're gonna get fired from our job or divorce from a partner or our partner is going to run away with the milkman or the woman or whatever's gonna happen. We're worried that the sky is gonna fall and this physical experience of being in a state of Red Alert is really expensive. And it results in deep, deep, deep, emotional, sad mental and emotional sadness. But it comes from the physicality of our nervous system being in Red Alert. Balanced centred calm is the solution. balanced mind centred body, calm nerves, the things that trigger our nervous system to make it sad, our fear, guilt, and of course, all the substances that we put into our body that heighten it. So anything that makes your body feel great, is going to make it feel shitty, and therefore sad at the end of the day, so first things first, we deal with the physical because it's the most logical and the most typical of the causes of sadness. The second one is mental sadness, in a mental sense comes from a perception of loss, that we lost something that we could have had something, loss and regret. They go hand in hand. And when we go, gee whiz, I lost an opportunity. I lost a job, I lost some money, I lost my car, I lost my car keys, and sadness will ensue. Sadness is a mask in the mental world for anger. So when a person's going around going I'm really sad that this happened. I'm really sad. What they're basically saying is I'm using sadness to put a cap on what I really feel, which I'm not allowing myself to really feel is the damn anger that something happened that I lost control of, but that went away. That was taken from me was stolen from me. And so, the perception of anger and therefore loss and therefore sadness, which are layers to the same thing in the mental world, can be overcome through the process of abundance that nothing's ever missing. It just changes form and if you lose your car keys or you lose a million dollars or you lose a job, you gained something else in a different form. And everybody's conscious of the idea, live in the now or appreciate and be grateful for what you've got. But when they lose something, they seem to fall out of that paradigm and fall into the anger underneath the table, which is going to kill us all. Because as you will know, anger is the fundamental trigger for the cancer. Growth in the human body. That's the that's the that's the trigger that erodes the immune system. You know that every human being on the planet has things attacking itself right from the get go. And we have an immune system which overcomes that and when the immune system breaks down, or the hammering is perpetual, onto that cellular structure, we create what's called cancer breakdown of the cells. And so even though we might be very stoic, and we might be on railway tracks in terms of our mental state, and our emotional state, when when we get angry, and it's hidden by sadness, that's the most dangerous thing we can have.
