I'm a Stress Management Coach who specializes in teaching people how to master their emotions. I use techniques that help people to use the power of their minds to create a better more enjoyable experience of life for themselves.
I came into this field by first searching for, compiling, and teaching myself the techniques that I use to empower others for personal pain and stress reduction.
It is my joy and passion to help others in this way!

why is important for us to accept and feel the emotion we are feeling? why is bad to be in denial or try to fight it? is it true that if we keep bottling up emotions or feelings we won't really notice the things around us? (link)

When we resist emotions and try to push them away, they become "tangled up" inside us, becoming the cause of our own unwanted and often unexpected over-reactions, angry outbursts, resentments, and other self-destructive internal and external behavior.
It is also absolutely true that we can become so unconsciously identified with our emotions, that we don't notice things around us--you are so right on about this! Bottling up emotions causes exactly the opposite effect--as human beings, we can't bottle up our emotions without them somehow overflowing in the form of destructive behaviors, or at least attitudes.
As a matter of fact, this is the number one cause of people living more in the past and in the future than living in the present. It is why people often move through their lives without truly experiencing their lives, and without being able to truly enjoy even the simplest things, like the company of loved ones.
There is training available in which one restructures the way one thinks, allowing a person to "dis-entangle" themselves from their emotions and stop identifying with them. In this way, one becomes aware of emotions without having to wallow in them and be at the mercy of them.
This is exactly what I teach: How to be the Master of Your Emotions!
I hope this helps--I'll be happy to elaborate if you want to ask me further questions here.
