New findings in behavioral and neuroscience have found that emotions are not wired into our brains at birth or any time after. Emotions are predictions or guesses grounded in previous experience.

We want to be our best selves. We try to eat well, exercise, meditate and pray, maintain social connections and keep our minds active. But what about our emotional health?

Where do your dreams, plans and actions fall apart, the launch, the flight, or the landing? Whether the goal is large or small, our success, or lack thereof, is decided by the little beliefs and attitudes that we carry with us in the undercurrent of our subconscious voice.

I'm a guest blogger on the Emotional Health Institute website :) and this blog is one I posted there.

How many times have we heard or thought to ourselves, "just let it go"? Don't be angry forever, let it go. Don't be anxious or fearful, let it go. If we could just wash it off in the shower, or cough it out like a puff of smog, that would be one thing.
