Karla McLaren on sadness

Karla McLaren talks about sadness and rejuvenation - this an excerpt from her course "Emotional Flow" http://thecreativemind.net/EFlow From the Sounds True course page: Have you ever been swept up by your emotions—sadness, fear, jealousy, anger, or even too much exhilaration—and felt completely at sea? Or experienced a major life change … and felt strangely numb, disconnected, or confused? Modern neuroscience reveals that our emotions are absolutely essential to every aspect of intelligence, perception, and consciousness—yet few of us were ever taught how to work with them skillfully. Instead, most of us have learned to suppress our so-called bad emotions and pursue only the supposedly good ones. The truth, teaches empathic counselor and author Karla McLaren, is that all of your emotions contain essential information to help you experience your world fully—and the energy you require to act most effectively.
