"Our emotions are the driving force that determines the
quality of our lives. Everyone is
capable of experiencing the whole range of human emotions, yet many people
allow themselves to experience only a narrow range. One person may go from feeling sad to angry
to sad again, while another may go from feeling love to joy, and someone else
may regularly experience fear, anxiety, and pain. It is characteristic of western culture to
believe that our emotions are outside of our control. Most people believe that the depressed person
is simply depressed, does nothing to deliberately bring on that state, and
therefore cannot do anything to change it.
Similarly, the happy person simply has a happy disposition and is also
not responsible for bringing on that state.
We seem to believe that our emotions
are determined by a mysterious predisposition.
The truth is emotions do not come to us.
We go to them. If you regularly
experience anger, sadness, guilt, or fear, instead of joy, gratitude,
compassion, and excitement, this is because these emotions meet certain needs
within you. Fortunately it is possible
to make a conscious choice about your emotions"
"All behaviors, including emotions, consist of three parts
working together: patterns of physiology and posture, patterns of mental focus,
and language patterns. In order to be
depressed, a person must assume a certain posture, focus on certain specific
things, and use certain specific language patterns that lead to depression. Robbins will ask Tahnee to deliberately put
herself into a state of depression so that the audience can see what patterns
of physiology, focus, and language are necessary for her to feel depressed."
