How to expand
Code 1: Expand Emotional Power
You can never eradicate your pain, you can only transform it
Negative emotions are literally a neurobiological energy, governed by the laws of physics: "energy cannot be created or destroyed, but it can be transformed"
X way of "transform" your pain
Expand the Edge of Emotional Power
What is emotional edge?
--> It describes the amount of energy your nervous system can hold while you remain connected to your power. It’s the outermost amount of sensation you can tolerate before you become emotionally unsteady.
2 ways of imbalance
Hyperarosed
The sensations in your body feel too big
Ex: too anxious, too angry, too overwhelmed, your heart is pounding, your hands are sweating, your thoughts are racing...
Hypoaroused
Y our emotional state is under-active
Ex: numb, flat, depleted, depressed, sluggish, zone out, disconnected
Your goal is to try to expand your edge—augment it so you can hold more neurologic energy. When you expand your edge, your brain will stay centered in the same situations that previously would have caused it to become hyperaroused or hypoaroused.

Understand Uncertainty
There is one certain thing about Uncertainty: You can never be certain about anything!
--> So you do things, rise again, not because you know it for sure, but because you hope (and do your best) anyway
It's more painful to be uncertain if they "may be" shocked than it is to be certain they "will" be shocked
--> Your emotional feelings surrounding your situation of uncertainty can be more painful than physical pain.
Uncertainty cannot be powerfully understood at the level of the situation. It has a predictable rhythm to its energy, regardless of situation. --> It affects your nervous system in similar ways across a range of diverse situations. (No matter the situation, your brain & body go through the same changes in physiology)
--> You become much more emotionally powerful when you take your focus off solving every unresolved scenario and instead focus more on the person you routinely become in the shadow of uncertainty’s energy.
the energy of uncertainty does not live in the situation but is itself the energy that creates the situation. Your situation doesn’t make you wonder “What if?” Rather, it’s the act of anxiously wondering “What if?” that shapes your situation
It is important to realize that not the situation itself is the problem, but how we interact with the situation impact (and because there is always uncertainty,

Emotional Power - Definitions
Emotional Pain
All-encompassing word for any negative emotional experience (ex: stress, fear, anxiety, irritated, bored...)
Any time you have a feeling you don't like, you have an emotional pain
Most of the emo pain to work on is
the pain you inflict upon yourself
, not by others
(Ex: You feel disappointed when you betrayed urself by not doing the things you set out to do; not the disappointed when you husband turn out to be less resilience than you want him to be
Another word: Self-Betrayed, Self-Division
Emotional Power
Is your wholeness, your refusal to divide yourself from yourself, your refusal to deny your authentic emotions
Emotional power is exceptionally important in uncertain times because it empowers you to stay with your vision even when external forces make it difficult
Another word: Worthiness.
Worthiness means you believe in your inherent wholeness—that all of you belongs and that all of you has value. Not just the happy parts, not just the smart parts, not just the good-looking or hardworking parts. All the parts belong
Connected Eneergies
Emo pain & emo power are 2 sides of the same coin. You can't have one without the other and you don't choose one over the other. You need to understand and embrace both to grow.
Just like you cannot know light unless you also know dark, you only feel your pain because you remember your power.
Your emotional pain point you in the direction of what you really want.
Ex: If you feel jealous, it signals that you want it (whatever make you jealous) too. If you feel exhausted, it signals that you want rest
