"The vast majority of us do have trapped emotions, simply because of what we have been through and who we are at this point in our journey. Often, when someone has been through an intensely emotional event, such as a car accident, an argument, or a divorce, they will have trapped emotional energy about it...The body is designed to deal with emotional energy in the normal course of events...when an emotion becomes trapped, it’s partly because of extenuating circumstances, such as when we have lowered resistance or when we are overly tired or otherwise off balance. When our bodies are not at their best, we are more vulnerable to developing trapped emotions"
