The Emotion Code®


“Negative emotions are never going to be pleasant, but they can all be useful, it’s all about our perception of them!”


This quote by Dr Bradley Nelson creator of the Emotion Code suggests that negative emotions can serve a purpose and it is our perception of these emotions that determines their usefulness. For instance, fear can alert us to danger, sadness can lead to introspection, and anger can motivate change. Ultimately, our perception and response to these emotions shape their impact on our lives. Acknowledging and understanding them allows us to navigate our emotional landscape more effectively.


Do you feel you struggle with any of these key topics?

💜 People Pleasing - You prioritise other people’s needs and expectations over your own in a desire to gain approval, avoid conflict or negative feelings.

If so, you may have Trapped Emotions...


What is an Emotion?

From a physics standpoint everything in the universe is made of pure energy and emotions are no exception. Quantum physics has proven that energies affect other energies. So, it follows that we are affected by the energy of our emotions simply because our bodies are also made of energy.


An emotion both positive and negative is a complex state, that encompasses a wide range of physiological and psychological processes at the same time including:


The Psychological aspects of emotions:


  • Cognition: Our thoughts and perceptions are influenced by emotions. When we are in a good mood, positive thoughts tend to dominate and negative emotions can lead to pessimistic thinking.


  • Behavioural Responses: Our emotions drive specific behaviours with fear often leading to avoidant behaviour.


  • Attention: Our emotional state guides our focus. When we are afraid, we concentrate on potential threats and when we are happy, we notice positive aspects of our surroundings.


  • Memory: The emotional state we experience during an event significantly also impacts how we encode and retrieve memories related to that experience


The Physiological aspects of emotions:


  • Muscle Tension: When we encounter fear or stress, our body releases adrenaline, activating the sympathetic nervous system. This results in increased muscle tension, preparing us for action.


  • Hormone Release: Emotions trigger the release of specific hormones; stress induces the secretion of cortisol, while happiness activates dopamine release.


  • Cardiovascular Changes: Our emotional state impacts our heart rate, blood pressure, and blood flow.


  • Facial Expression: Our emotions are often visible through facial expressions.


  • Autonomic Responses: These involuntary changes include sweating, blushing, and goosebumps.


What happens when we experience an emotion?

Our body generates the emotional vibration based on two criteria: what we are experiencing in the moment and information stored in our bodies and minds from past experiences.

We experience the emotion along with any accompanying thoughts or physical sensations.

We choose to let the emotion go and we move on, after a few seconds to several minutes.

The last step is called processing, and once it is completed, we have successfully moved on from the emotional experience and it shouldn’t cause us any problems. If either Step 2 or Step 3 is interrupted, the emotional experience is incomplete, and the energy of the emotion is likely to become trapped in the body.


What is a Trapped Emotion?

Dr Bradley Nelson, creator of the Emotion Code at Discovery Healing describing "What is a Trapped Emotion?"

The Emotion Code® is an energy healing technique which works by identifying and releasing trapped emotions. Even when an individual has physically moved on from a past event where intense emotions are experienced, the frequency of the negative energy can become stuck in the body and distort the energy field.


When emotions are suppressed or unprocessed, they can cause you to make the wrong assumptions, overreact to innocent remarks and misinterpret behaviour. Yet no matter how great your suffering may be, the invisible energy of trapped emotions will remain undiagnosed by conventional medicine, even though it may be a major factor interfering with the body’s ability to function normally causing physical and emotional discomfort.


Releasing trapped emotions brings the body back into balance making conditions right for the body to heal itself, leading to changes in the choices made, the feelings, behaviours and results achieved.


Emotion Code explanation and Demonstration by Dr Bradley Nelson

Below is a Emotion Code explanation and demonstration by Dr Bradley Nelson so you can see how the process works.



The Emotion Code Process and Chart

  • Communication with the Subconscious: I use the Sway Test, a form of applied kinesiology muscle testing, which allows me to interpret subtle physical responses (biofeedback) from the body. By asking YES or NO questions, I gain insights from the subconscious about trapped emotions that may need clearing.


  • Using the Emotion Code Chart: The Emotion Code Chart is a valuable tool that allows me to identify which emotions have become trapped. The chart includes commonly found emotions, which are listed in columns and rows. Each of the listed emotions represents the remnant of vibrating energy that may have become lodged anywhere in your body and could be exerting a distorting force on the energy field of your being.


  • Identifying Trapped Emotions: Each trapped emotion needs to be identified and then released individually. It’s not possible to release them as a group, even though sometimes they will be connected. Your body knows exactly how many trapped emotions it can release in a session, and in what order it wants to release them.


  • Releasing Trapped Emotions: You must use another form of energy to release a trapped emotion and I use a magnet to magnify the power of my Intention (thought energy) by using the Governing Meridian to carry this into the energy field of the body. This is similar to the technique called phase cancellation used in noise cancelling headphones, which occurs when two or more audio waveforms clash with each other, resulting in deconstructive interference.
