How to Take Control of Your Emotions - Joseph Ross - Bog

The book begins with the development, functioning and processing of the subconscious, which at birth is just an empty system. At birth we start recording through our 5 senses everything we experience into a sensory Picture (visually dominated) format. During our first 6 years we record everything without question. At the end of those six years we stop recording Pictures with emotional material. Those Pictures then form into a filtering system (Psychic Lens) that allow intellectual material to continue to be Pictured. This process of what we picture is what makes us all different. Those pictures we've accumulated unquestioned unfortunately have within them a lot of assumptions and falsehoods. Those youthful pictures are called up later in our lives to respond to what we think and believe we are experiencing. Upon using a dysfunctional picture to respond to some experience they cannot achieve the validational need our E-Drive demands. The pictures we recorded are with us 24/7, birth to death awake or asleep, what we like, need, want, desire, prejudice, etc. In order to take control of your emotional life you need to be aware of their existence and see them consciously. Only then can you make the necessary changes to make them functional (achieve validation). It teaches each reader how to do all this in two stages. First to understand how their mind functions subconsciously through chapters such as: The track of pain, The Psychic Lens, inner voices, what's behind a word and more. The second stage is comprised of 7 (chapters) self-questioning methods of unearthing ones dysfunctional picture to where they can be seen. For only then can you expunge the assumptions and other pain causing material in your pictures and make them functional as well as add new needed pictures (a lot of us suffer from picture deprivation). This ability allows you to finally take conscious charge of your life and live a content and happy life.
