Okay? Ready to get back control of your life?

Great! Let’s get started…

Ever found yourself unable to shake off a bad mood? Got angry and felt unable to break out of it? I know how you felt. I used to do exactly the same. I used to feel that I was a slave to my emotions, that if I was “in” a bad mood then that was just the way it was. I’d go to bed at night and hope that the next day I would wake up and “be” in a good mood.

It used to feel like an emotional lottery and like a lottery not something that I did well on. I always thought there was a better way. I mean, I knew how to change the way I felt, I could drink alcohol or eat food. That would do the trick and that’s the way a lot of people do it. Although that would work, I didn’t like the downside. I didn’t want the hang-over or the extra pounds.

I knew there must be a better way and I set out to find it. And find it I did! In this article I will give you a simple and fun way to change the way you feel. After reading this, you can take a bad feeling and turn it into a good one. Sounds good, right? Well, read on…

How do you feel at the moment? Curious? Intrigued?

As you think about this, notice where you can feel the feeling in your body. Allow yourself to tune into the feeling and locate it exactly in your body. Got it? Great! Just allow yourself to experience it and where it is.

Try another feeling...

Think back to a time when you felt really happy and excited. Just allow an image of that memory to drift back into your mind, now. See what you saw, hear what you heard and feel the feelings once again.

Now, as you think about that feeling, notice whereabouts in your body you feel it. Is it in your stomach, your face, your neck or floating around from one part to another? Once you locate the feeling, notice how it is moving. Richard Bandler, the co-creator of Neuro Linguist Programming (NLP) says that in order to continue to notice a feeling, it must keep moving. Just track the movement of the feeling flowing through your body. It may remain in place, it may spin around or it may do both. Just notice the direction it moves and/or spins.

Now, if the feeling had a colour, what would it be? Whatever answer comes to you first, go with that one. You may think that you just guessed but that does not matter. Remember that the unconscious mind is responsible for intuition and guesses and it’s the unconscious mind we are communicating with now.

Okay, so with this happy feeling inside, we now know where it is, how it is moving and what colour it is. Try listening to the feeling and either hear or allow yourself to imagine what sound it would make. This could be a simple noise, e.g. a gentle hum, or it could be a voice saying a certain phrase or word. Whatever it is, that is right for you and the feeling right now.

Okay, so that was fun but what use was it? Well, by determining those attributes (i.e. location, colour, sound) we now have some “handles” we can use to modify it. So, with the happy feeling still flowing inside your body, move and spin it faster. Then spin it faster still and notice how that changes the feeling. Double the speed and spin again. Make it race around your body and feel how that changes the feeling. Now, make the colour brighter, more vivid and powerful. How much does that increase the potency of the feeling? Again, make the colour really saturated and intense. Try making the sound louder and crisper, keeping it spinning fast and the colours bright and notice how that increases the feeling even more. Got it? Great!

Okay, so we have taken a good feeling and intensified it. Will that be a useful skill to have? Absolutely! Why settle for feeling good when you can spin up a good feeling and make it great.

What about bad feelings? Well we can play with them as well. In fact why not turn bad feelings into good ones and then spin them up into great feelings? Sound compelling? Then let’s do it…

Just let your mind drift back to a time when you experienced a bad time, let’s start with something minor, like a bad day at work or something similar. Allow yourself to recreate the memory. See what you saw, hear what you heard and feel the annoyance or anger in your body. Now, notice where the feeling is. In order to keep being felt it must be moving or spinning. Notice how it moves or which direction it spins. As you pay attention to the feeling, notice what colour it is. Finally, listen to the feeling and determine what sound it makes. If you don’t hear a sound, don’t worry, just imagine what sound it could have, that would be fine. Okay, so we have our bad feeling and we know how we create it, in terms of attributes, lets mess with it a little bit...

Right, pull the feeling out of your body and hold it in front of you. Twist it around, flip it over and re-insert it back inside again. Do this in one mental movement or two if you’d prefer. Notice how the feeling changes when it is replaced upside down and back to front. Now start to move or spin it in the opposite way to before. Most likely the colour would have changed or be changing by now but if not then just start to influence the colour and allow it to begin to change. With the other attributes changing, the sound will have changed too. If not then again just pay attention to it and notice how it fades or changes in some way. With the feeling spinning the opposite way the feeling flips over too and becomes another feeling altogether. Flip a bad feeling and get a good one. Now, once this new feeling is moving and has its new colour and sound, start to intensify it. Spin it faster and faster, make the colour brighter and more vivid and make the sound louder and clearer and crisper. Then, double the intensity again. Do whatever you need to do and double it yet again. That’s right. Not a bad change, huh? Now, feel free to do this whenever you have a bad feeling and enjoy it!

This was just one way to change the way you are feeling. If you want to find out more, check out http://www.feelamazingnow.com for details.
