    In this episode of Art of Wellness with Sema and Naomi, we explore the complex world of emotions and challenge the common pursuit of happiness as the ultimate goal. We discuss how the relentless chase for happiness is like striving to live in a state of perpetual mania—leaving no room for the full spectrum of human experience.

    Emotions are neither positive nor negative; they simply are. They serve as vital signals, guiding us through life’s challenges and joys. Yet, in our modern world, we often try to avoid uncomfortable emotions through constant stimulation and distractions, which can lead to long-term harm. This escape is the root cause of around 90% of diseases in this current world.

    We'll dive into the science behind emotions, exploring how essential they are for our mental and physical well-being. When we ignore or suppress our emotions, it can manifest as chronic stress, anxiety, and physical illness. Understanding and embracing our emotions is crucial for a healthy, balanced life.

    Join us as we break down the myths about happiness and uncover the true power of embracing all emotions. This episode is a call to live authentically and fully, embracing the highs and lows as part of the rich tapestry of life.
