Breathe with intention for good for all

So when did crying get such a bad rap?

When did crying become anathema to courage and strength? More importantly, when will realize that to cry tears is not a sign of weakness but a natural human response that has not only emotional benefits but physiological ones as well?

Crying releases pent up anger, disappointments and frustrations, not to mention sorrow, loss, grief and even joy and relief. To cry is to release something so that a replacement of new energy and experiences can commence. Emotionally and physiologically to cry–aka shedding tears–is not only a cleansing mechanism but also a healing one.

Chemically, tears contain salt, water, oil and protein. Prolactin being the protein. Known as the nurturing protein, prolactin is the peptide hormone secreted in breast milk during lactation. It is also responsible for our salt to water balance, growth and development, metabolism, brain functionality, reproduction, and immune regulation and protection. Try that on for size next time you want to suppress your tears.

Speaking of tears, there are three types–basal, reflex and emotional. Some scientific researchers even believe that crying emotional tears releases toxins and waste products from the body, including endorphins, which in turn reduces stress and improves mood. Spiritualists have always contended this.

To cry is to release and to release is the stepping stone to healing.

PAST:
Pull
All
Stuff
Together
And put it in a box.

Can’t change the past. The past will come back to haunt you. Stop living in the past as the present is all we get that’s why it’s called the present for it’s the gift of today. We’ve all heard and said the clichés no doubt.

But it is at times easier said than done. Especially if we feel sorrow, grief, anger or regret toward the past and our past actions. I know I fall prey to this demon from time to time and it never serves me well. So while we cannot change the past, we can change both our reaction to it and most of all our actions in the present when faced with a similar situation as to one we messed up big time before.

When facing choices, difficult ones, or when reflecting upon things said we wish we had not, or things done, we now regret, or when lamenting the past, it is best not to dwell too long in this space. To do so leads to despair, depression, digression. Instead I like to take a page from one of my great mentor’s book.

I was working on this post when I heard about the tragic death of Whitney Houston. While the cause of her death has yet to be determined, one thing we do know is that during her life she battled addiction. A condition that knows neither boundaries nor containment based upon social, economic, racial, religious, gender, s*xual preference or geographical commonalities or definitions.

There are many forms of addiction—drugs, alcohol, codependency, food, gambling, s*x, love, internet, gaming……the list is pervasive and endless.

What is a commonality among all types of addiction are the elements of fear, shame, loss of self-respect and self-hatred to some varying degree. These are the binding factors.

When I was young I had my share of traumatic events in my life. Just like you! One thing that I’ve learned is that these events had no meaning. They were just things that happened in my life. Then, I applied meaning to them. Most times it was a subconscious decision, an instantaneous reaction to what was happening. There was no knowledge or wisdom that guided these decisions other than an instinct or the patterns that were already present in my life that I learned from my parents or other authority figures. When meaning is applied to an event, they became experiences. Through those experiences I created beliefs about myself, about life, about other people and about the world I live in.

Example: My parents divorced when I was five years old, and my father moved out of the house. He was only 25 and still learning how to be a good father to two growing boys. Having to face the dismantling of his family was extremely difficult for him. Because of this, I didn’t see him nearly as much. The meaning I applied to that event was that when you love someone, they leave. This was a subconscious belief or decision that I made about life and relationships.

“Life is a series of baby steps along the way and if you add up these tiny little steps you take toward your goal, whatever it is, whether it's giving up something, a terrible addiction or trying to work your way through an illness. When you total up those baby steps you'd be amazed over the course of 10 years, the strides you've taken.” - Hoda Kotb
