The Most Powerful Drug Used by Mankind
By Tonda Adams, JD, CCHT
Words can create a feeling of euphoria or can cause a feeling of devastation. They can bring a country together or to its knees. Words can even put you in a trance.
One definition of the word, 'word,' is an articulate sound or symbol expressing an idea, but it is so much more, it is a pointer to an emotion attached to the word. What do you feel when you hear the words stupid...ignorant...jerk? How does your feelings change when you say words such as love... peace...joy...yumm...tasty?

"One great use of words
is to hide our thoughts." --Voltaire |
Perhaps you are wondering what this all has to do with the most powerful drug?
Each word has a vibration of emotions that we react to. Our bodies are sensitive to all vibrations, realized or not. When someone says a harsh, loud or abrasive word, our body reacts by a tightening of the muscles, and if we feel threatened, epinephrine propels through our body causing the heart to race, shallow breathing and a chain of chemical reactions.
The two most powerful words in our language are the words "I AM."
These words have caused more pain and suffering than any other words in our language. Of course, it is not the words that caused the pain and suffering, but the emotional meaning we have attached to the words that follow.
How many times have you said or heard the words I AM sick... I AM tired... I AM angry... I AM disappointed... I AM Sad...I AM lonely... "I AM"... "I AM"... who is this "I AM" that is qualifying the words with the emotion and creating the feeling of sickness, fatigue, anger, disappointment? There is only one person who can say "I AM" and that
is you.
Changing the words to I feel sick or I feel tired is much different than saying I AM Sick or I AM tired. This way you can actually feel the sensation without becoming it. Simply reframing the words will help you become aware of how often you use these phrases and assist in the emotional shift.
A child hears these statements thousands of times before adulthood. These words are decrees that have been used so often they are programmed in our unconscious mind and have become a part of our map of reality.
Words are cups that hold the emotion of what we are communicating. When we are angry, the words we use are filled with that emotion. Irritation is just a lesser emotion of anger.
Babies are the most sensitive to sound vibration. Although not capable of understanding the meaning of a word, they definitely absorb the energy/vibration conveyed by the word. They know instinctively when a sound/vibration is soothing, or irritating to the nervous system. They pick up the emotional energy from those around them.
