Granted, for me, when I experience things deeply I often cry as a release. I sometimes laugh too, hysterically. Not because something is funny, it's just a release.
I practice EFT and fasterEFT and the whole key to releasing the emotion, is to be able to bring it up in your mind (ie: state of trance) and to FEEL that, for the last time. As, once you've felt it and dealt with it using the technique it is no longer an issue. And stays that way. Tears seem to be an accompanying reaction to accessing the buried, or not so buried emotion, but don't quote me on it it just seems like that to me.
A subliminal could be a great tool to become open to experiencing the things which are holding us back, as they're so painful we prefer not to have access to them. Nice idea.
I like your response Maggie. I remember reading, I think in Time, that there are groups that get together every day and start laughing together, like they make faces or do whatever they have to to make themselves laugh. I think it is an offshoot of a yoga thing.
But really, laughing is just as cathartic as crying. Been awhile since I have had a good one of either, now that I think about it.
Pain and pleasure, different sides of the same coin. It is amazing, to me atleast, how it is our perception of either that determines how we will react to any situation.
