Spiritual/Metaphysical Truth (with a capital T) vs emotional truth

“What we feel is our “emotional truth” and it does not necessarily have anything to do with either facts or Truth with a capital “T” - especially when we our reacting out of an age of our inner child. If we are reacting out of what our emotional truth was when we were five or nine or fourteen, then we are not capable of responding appropriately to what is happening in the moment; we are not being in the now.” “We are Spiritual beings having a human experience - not weak, shameful creatures who are here being punished or tested for worthiness. We are part of/an extension of an ALL-Powerful, Unconditionally Loving God-Force/Goddess Energy/Great Spirit, and we are here on Earth going to boarding school - not condemned to prison.” “I needed to learn how to set boundaries within, both emotionally and mentally by integrating Spiritual Truth into my process. Because “I feel feel like a failure” does not mean that is the Truth. The Spiritual Truth is that “failure” is an opportunity for growth. I can set a boundary with my emotions by not buying into the illusion that what I am feeling is who I am. I can set a boundary intellectually by telling that part of my mind that is judging and shaming me to shut up, because that is my disease lying to me. I can feel and release the emotional pain energy at the same time I am telling myself the Truth by not buying into the shame and judgment.”

On this page Spiritual teacher/codependency therapist explains that Spiritual Truth comes from our Soul, while emotional truth is often dictated by our childhood wounds.
