Moods change from day to day, hour to hour and moment to moment.
Science tells us that diet, environment, chemicals, lifestyle, etc. affect our
moods. This is called biochemistry. Biochemistry is about the chemical
substances (hormones, peptides, and neurotransmitters) that dictate our moods
and affect our bodies. And although moods affect certain types of individuals
to a greater degree than others, all moods affect everyone. The major negative
mood states that affect us are:
1. Depression
2. Fear
3. Worry – mental turmoil
4. Stress
5. Indecision
6. Boredom or indifference
7. Doubt – discouragement
8. Impatience
9. Self-distrust
10.
Weakness
or powerlessness – despair
11.
Over-enthusiasm
12.
Pride or
aloofness
There are many variations of our moods, but the most
destructive is fear for it brings
with it stress, worry, impatience, distrust and doubt.
There are three major fears – fear of not being loved, fear
of rejection and fear of dying. Remove fear and you discover freedom. Moods are
impressions and those impressions reflect your state of being. If you could
find perfect balance in your life how would your moods change? If you felt emotionally
strong you would not feel powerless and full of doubt. If you could stay
flexible you would know everything changes and therefore not to get impatient,
bored, indifferent and stressed. If you could be at peace with the world and
live in harmony with life you would find peace and to be at peace brings you
freedom. Let’s get to work.
Moods compromise the integrity of the body-mind and thus cut
us off from our soul. However, awareness of the energy of the moods and
implementing conscious change presents the opportunity to know the nature of
our karma. Only through conscious awareness of how we separate ourselves can we
set about to make changes towards integrating the whole. When we begin to replace
vices with virtues we begin to change our karma. Through the content of our lives, we have the
opportunity to discover both the corrections and the qualities that ultimately
allow the individual to experience heaven on earth; better known as happiness.
