if is it, does it mean it our fault for being in this state?
if so, why would we choose it?
after all, we think it does us more harm than good. it bothers us. every one of you probably googled things and ended up here.
so how can we stop it? how do we stop any other trait?
if we are emotionally numb (emotions exist perfectly fine within us, but were not aware of them), then the trait we are reffering to is basically... one's emotional level of awareness.
if i understand the above correctly, i could choose a trait for example usage, to better understand all of this.
lets choose a trait that has nothing to do with emotions... for example - memory recall.
what would a person do if he had bad memory? how could he have better memory? or maybe more importantly, how would his memory become poor? maybe the person decided to not challenge himself anymore, and to be less ingaged in memorizing thing. is that how one can have his memory become poor?
but how does one make his memory better?
does he engage himself with more and more things to remember?
if so, shouldnt we simply find where our problem began by:
1 - try hard to remember how, and by what action (even if mental) our emotional awareness became poor?
2 - if the first one doesnt work - try to be more aware of emotions by engaging in extreme emotional situations, and trying to figure out what it is that causes them to slip from our awareness?
anyway these are the thoughts i have to share.
also, there is a really good video on youtube that i found, made by Teal Swan. I know, many of you may not be too eager to listen to soemone that talks about many spiritual subjects, but trust me, please give this one a try.
