The Emotional Power of Anchors

Life is full of emotions. The quality of our lives lies in the quality of our emotions. To create the life we truly want, we need to stop relying on chance and intentionally condition our emotions. We must understand perhaps the most important factor that significantly impacts our emotional life: anchors. Once we see life through the perspective of anchors, we can empower ourselves and, with enough practice and consistency, increase our emotional health.

 

In this episode, I illustrate the emotional power of anchors and how they impact our emotional life, even if we’re not aware of it. I explain how anchors evolved to serve as a survival mechanism for humans and the steps you can take to intentionally set up anchors and access the emotional state you desire. I also share some “ego states” that I create and access, as well as reveal how I use essential oils, music, and body language to anchor to these states.

 

“Anchors are an efficiency mechanism. It reminds us how to feel and act in certain situations.” - Nicholas Spohn
