Half the world’s population are Emotionally defined, that is, their Solar Plex Centre is coloured in on their chart. This powerful centre becomes our decision making authority in Human Design. There is no truth in the now for the emotionally defined and we are always on a “wave”, sometimes we are up and sometimes we are down.

I recorded an episode while I was in a “low wave” to share how I work with this energy as it can often be labelled as depression. It is part of who we are, it is mechanics. I also talk about becoming aware of patterns and the experience of using junk food to suppress “negative” emotions, something Dr. Gabor Mate discusses in his work.

Are you emotionally defined? Has learning this changed your experience in any way?
