I just love the EGS – Emotional Guidance System from Esther and Jerry Hicks book
Ask and it is Given : Learning to Manifest the Law of Attraction
It is a pretty simple and effective concept. Your emotions help guide you where you are in relation to where you want to be. So if you feel a discord or angry for example then you are simply not in line with where you want to be. Below is a scale from page 114 of the book to help you gauge where you are:
- Joy/Knowledge/Empowerment/Freedom/Love/Appreciation
- Passion
- Enthusiasm/Eagerness/Happiness
- Positive Expectation/Belief
- Optimism
- Hopefulness
- Contentment
- Boredom
- Pessimism
- Frustration/Irritation/Impatience
- “Overwhelment”
- Disappointment
- Doubt
- Worry
- Blame
- Discouragement
- Anger
- Revenge
- Hatred/Rage
- Jealousy
- Insecurity/Guilt/Unworthiness
- Fear/Grief/Depression/Despair/Powerlessness
The trick is to change your thoughts and try and move up the ladder of emotions. So moving from say Depression to Anger should be seen as a positive move even though people around you may not see it like that. The goal is to change your thoughts until your emotions move up the scale. Of course as challenges appear you will not stay at the top of the scale, but if you take notice of how you are feeling you can quickly correct the situation.
Great book with some fantastic tips.
