Episode 28 – Reject Knee-Jerk Reactions

We exist in these imperfect vessels we call a body. These bodies come with their own emotions and defence mechanisms. As such, it is impossible to be emotionless. We will always have knee-jerk emotional responses, this we cannot change. We can, however, control how quickly we get back to ourselves. So try and curb your body’s response as quickly as you can and get back to being a reasonable rational person.
