How to Create Joy from Suffering!

No life is without challenges and sufferings. That is a fact. How we see, think and feel about these stressful situations is a choice. The good news is that is also a fact. Our Perspectives matter and play a key role in how we deal with these negative situations.

One key prime directive of our unconscious mind is to protect us and keep our wellbeing in the forefront. To do this it sometimes needs to repress our memories with unresolved negative emotions because it may feel we are not ready to deal with it or the result of dealing with the negative emotion may also greatly impact our wellbeing . Have your ever noticed that people with trauma or extreme exposure to anything ‘unpleasant’ sometimes build an invisible wall around them and behave a certain way so they avoid facing the impact of the situation they have recently experienced. 

It takes a lot of energy for the unconscious mind to repress these memories, therefore, when it feels we have are ready or have the tools to deal with these negative emotions, it will also present them to us for resolution. 

This is an immensely powerful realization. The more challenges we face, the more joyfully we should move forward and the more determined we should be to overcome them. If we adopt this perspective with conscious awareness, that we now have the tools to deal with these challenges and overcome them finally, will help us to be at cause (vs effect) .We will ,for sure breakthrough and emerge victorious.

In the end, WE have the power to transform by trusting our potential and having faith that we are ready to face our challenges head-on and convert our sufferings into JOY. The trick is to not give in.
