This only works for those who have achieved self actualization and at that point they'd already be in control of it.

@champclay18 weed in the long run will ruin your emotions. weed supresses emotions so eventually you will be unable to respond properly to whatever it is your supposed to be feeling.

I Really enjoyed the video and the channel. Wanted to say hi and make friends.

mycroft007. It is precisely what I believe to be semantic sloppiness by those who should know better that they leap into the age old assumption that the experiences labelled "emotions" are such rather than moods, types of stress and/or excitation flowing from any reaction to the environment. It is our range of cognitive skills and ability to take account of knowledge and previous experience which enables us to better appraise the likely consequences of any response to arousal of emotion.

mycroft007. In your example the stimulus, albeit imagined, induces the

physiological responses aroused by your perception of "threat" and it is the phsiological changes enabling you to cope with threat and your awareness of such changes that is emotion as a phenomenon. How you go on to re-act in behavioral terms may or may not involve additional cognitive activity and, in the same way how you "feel" in terms of sensations,thoughts, mood, however related to the emotion are discrete.

[mycroft007]

@golsno147 This is mostly semantics. I can imagine something scary and it will cause a physical response. So which is the emotion? The thing I imagined that caused the physical reaction, or the physical reaction I termed "scary".

And the video talks about changing the physical response and therefore changing the emotion. Or causing and "emotion" by having a physical response.

It is true we label responses as emotions. We can learn to change those labels and hence control the emotions.

[golsno147]

If you examine them further you will find that , whilst they variously refer-not to the

initial impact- but to behavioural responses, body language, facial expressions,

revised or new attitudes, adjustment of expectancies , beliefs and more particularly mood that we are simply labelling the consequences of emotion, as experienced, rather than the initial event . Assuming we "control" anything

 we may learn from an experience to face, more appropriately, changing circumstances.
