04 BEGIN HERE by Profiling your PROBLEM AREAHere some of the most common inappropriate negative emotions behind disturbance or upsets. Each of the profiles contains key factors that normally accompany inappropriate negative emotions. The pattern is in the form of: the activating triggers (referred to at the A), the meanings given to the event in terms of self, others or life (referred to as the B); and the impact of the meanings felt as: Emotions; Body-sense; and behavioural reactions that occur. The lower half of the profile selections are for personal Christian work from an ancient counselling tool called the SEVEN DEADLY sins. This approach like REBT or CBT works from the premise that our thinking can distort our natural human traits where instead of serving us they work to destroy us. This recognises the essential nature of sin in spirituality-terms as being something that moves us out of harmony with ourselves, all that is around us and our essential origin in God. 00 Do a SELF - SURVEY to get started Do an honest and searching survey of just where things are for you at present by answering the questions similar to those on this form.
