In another episode of True North, as we explore our new book Control the Beast, we are looking at How the Beast Works, an understanding of the mechanics of emotions. 

Emotions are a combination of elements going on at the same time. They combine mental, psychic, or physical components. These are controlled by internal mechanisms (physiological), which get the person ready for reactions to threats, better known as the "fight or flight syndrome." 

So how do we control them? We have to understand behavior modification. Identifying an emotion as positive or negative does not make that emotion right or wrong. It does not make you bad or evil because you have that emotion. You need to learn, identify, and manage it. Emotions tend to balance one another to function in our somewhat civilized society; this is how behavior modification works.
