Emotion Code Questions to Help You Understand Your Trapped Emotions

Emotion Code Questions

Whose emotion was this?

Was this my/your (name the emotion)?

Was it toward a person? - Male? Female? Friend? Parent? Sibling? Co-worker? In-law? Relative?

Was it about a situation? - To do with school? Home? Work?

Is this an acquired (name the emotion)? - From a Spouse? Friend? Co-worker? Family member?

When was this emotion trapped in my/your body?

Split the person’s age in half and ask, “Was this emotion trapped in the first ________ years of my/your life?”

Continue narrowing down until you reach the approximate age. In his book Dr. Nelson says that age is not always accurate and his experience is that it can sway a year either direction. To be more accurate use events to go off of. For instance – “Did this happen before graduation?”

Where is it lodged?

Is this trapped emotion stuck in the right side of the body? Left side? Midline?
Is this emotion trapped above the waistline? Below?
Is this emotion trapped in an organ of the body? In a limb? In a joint? In the tissues?
