Fortunately, emotions can be graphed on a scale from lowest to highest. This scale is one of the most important life tools in your toolbox. This scale is actually 3 dimensional. It represents <br \/>1) the amount of life force energy a person is allowing<br \/>2) emotional well\u2013being <br \/>3) intelligence, intellectual ability<br \/>As you go up the scale you experience increasing amounts of all three factors. As you go down the scale, you experience less.<\/p>\n<p>Excerpted from the book, The Vibrational Universe<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBarb and Jill<br \/>(The full conversation from chapter 2. Barb calls her friend Jill and discovers she is feeling down about herself. Barb uses the scale of emotion \/ vibration to cheer her friend up)<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat\u2019s wrong Barb?\u201d says Jill.<br \/>\u201cOh, I just don\u2019t care anymore,\u201d Barb says apathetically.<br \/>Jill is just about to fire off an angry comment about Thorpe, (Barb\u2019s former boyfriend) but she realizes that apathy is very low down on the scale and doesn\u2019t want to overwhelm her friend, so she says gently, \u201cIt\u2019s Thorpe isn\u2019t it?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Emotion Attitude<br \/>Apathy \u201cI give up.\u201d<br \/>Grief <br \/>Propitiation \u201cI\u2019ll do anything to make it up to you!\u201d<br \/>Sympathy \u201cI feel your pain.\u201d<br \/>Fear <br \/>Anxiety <br \/>Hidden Hostility He&#8217;s smiling in your face and stabbing you in the back. <br \/>Callousness \u201cTough for you. Just do it.\u201d<br \/>Anger Out of control, lashing out at the world.<br \/>Antagonism \u201cHey! Come over here and let me kick your butt!\u201d Feistiness.<br \/>Boredom\/Complacency Yawn<br \/>Conservatism \u201cThings are fine just the way they are\u201d<br \/>Interest \u201cHey that&#8217;s cool!\u201d<br \/>Enthusiasm \u201cWow! Let&#8217;s do that again!\u201d<br \/>Exhilaration \u201cI feel fantastic!!!!!\u201d <br \/>Serenity\/bliss Complete connection to Source, or God force, or life-force energy. This is the feeling consciousness has in its native, non\u2013physical state.<\/p>\n<p>Fig. 2-5. The Emotional Scale<\/p>\n<p>Suddenly Barb bursts into tears, an activity that used to really anger Thorpe. \u201cDarn woman,\u201d he\u2019d think, \u201cwhat\u2019s wrong with her now?\u201d But Jill knows that grief is the next harmonic of vibration up on the scale of emotions, so to her Barb\u2019s reaction is perfectly logical. Barb is wailing on about Thorpe and how lonely and rejected she feels. Jill is a good counselor, and even though she thinks to herself, \u201cYou\u2019re a whole lot better off without that loser honey,\u201d she says nothing and lets Barb vent. She knows that although being around grief is uncomfortable, matching Barb\u2019s vibration would result in failure, for two vibrations of grief would just reinforce the other, sticking both women right in it. Jill knows that only by maintaining a high emotional level can she be of any use to Barb at all.<\/p>\n<p>After several minutes Barb is cried out and looks up at her friend. Jill recognizes that Barb is poised at an emotional brink; and that a word or gesture from her can send her friend up the scale, or downward again. She also knows that people can hit an emotion and pass by it very quickly on the way up or down, so she\u2019s not sure exactly where Barb is going next, but she knows it\u2019s going to be some version of negative emotion, and is prepared for it. <\/p>\n<p>Jill says, \u201cYou had some good times together, didn\u2019t you?\u201d hoping to bring Barb up a little. She doesn\u2019t say, \u201cStill feeling sad about Thorpe?\u201d because that might stick Barb back in grief.<br \/>Barb says, sympathetically, and a little defensively, \u201cYeah we did! I remember the time we went to the putt\u2013putt golf course and he put his arms around me\u2026\u201d<br \/>Jill let\u2019s Barb go on a bit, because she recognizes the emotion of sympathy, which is a little bit up from grief.<\/p>\n<p>After a time Jill suggests, \u201cMaybe you\u2019ll meet somebody else.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>A look of anxiety comes over Barb\u2019s face and she says, \u201cDo you really think I can? All the guys I\u2019m attracted to treat me like crap.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jill immediately recognizes the vibration of fear, and understands that it is a step up. \u201cYes I think you can,\u201d she says. \u201cYou\u2019re such a great person.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Barb says fearfully, \u201cI don\u2019t think so. Thorpe didn\u2019t think so anyway. Maybe I\u2019m doomed to be lonely forever.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Jill puts a little anger in her voice and says, \u201cRemember how he cussed you out at the amusement park when you didn\u2019t want to go on the rollercoaster?\u201d That was a little reach by Jill, because anger is the next major harmonic on the scale, but it could backfire and put Barb right back into grief. Even if it does, Jill knows it\u2019s not a problem, for it just means Barb needs to cry a little more and fully release it. Barb\u2019s face is a study in emotion as she goes up to anger, down to grief and up to fear again. But Jill\u2019s statement hit home, because Jill knows something about Barb\u2019s life and how her friend thinks.<\/p>\n<p>Barb remembers many more incidents almost as bad, and her face hardens. \u201cThat bastard,\u201d she says. <\/p>\n<p>Jill is secretly thrilled, for her regard for Thorpe is like a gooey mess on the kitchen floor, but she keeps her opinions to herself and recognizes Barb has reached callousness, and that if she\u2019s successful, the dam will burst. Jill hates anger but she steels herself for it anyway, knowing it\u2019s the next harmonic. After probing around a bit on that subject, Barb starts screaming. \u201cDid I ever tell you what he said to me after I made dinner for him???@!@!!\u201d etc. This goes on for a while as Barb recounts all the times Thorpe was mean to her. Jill is holding it together in the face of Barb\u2019s anger, even when her friend picks up a glass of water and hurls it against the wall. Jill knows that even if the session ended right now, a lot of progress has been made, for anger is a big step up from apathy.<\/p>\n<p>After a while Barb calms down and begins to tease herself about Thorpe. \u201cMaybe I should go over to his house and put a dent in his truck.\u201d All of a sudden she bursts out laughing, realizing that Thorpe liked his new truck, and paid a lot more attention to it, than he ever did to her.<\/p>\n<p>Barb says, \u201cWhy did I ever hook up with that guy?\u201d<br \/>Jill smiles and says, \u201cI don\u2019t know sweetheart, but I do know that there are plenty of guys out there a lot better than him.\u201d<br \/>Barb says, \u201cThere better be!\u201d <\/p>\n<p>She\u2019s feeling a lot better now and Jill suggests they go out and get something to eat. Barb is eager to talk some more to her friend and agrees. Jill hopes to get her up to at least interest on the subject of the opposite sex.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Scale of Emotion \/ Vibration and how to use it In a vibrational universe, all things are vibrational in nature, including thoughts and emotions.
