RRSSD3 Emotional Regression

What rules your internal world: Passivity or Strength. When we are passive, all kinds of noise will shove its way into our thinking. Passive thinking is anxious, emotionally disturbing, and imbalanced. Strong thinking is intentional. It does not stop all noisy negative thinking, but it gives us the skill to move the thinking outside of ourselves instead of internalizing it. It helps us engage our strong/mature side to rebalance ourselves within minutes. There is no reason to stay stuck in emotions for days, weeks, months, years or even decades. 

RRSSD2 Understanding the Soul

We are made in three parts: spirit, soul and body. The soul is also in three parts: mind, will, and emotions. The spirit is justified when we are first born again. But the soul must be regenerated, and the body sanctified through Christ. Then we can glorify God, the Father, with our good works. Regeneration of your soul will place it under the dominion of the Holy Spirit and you can learn to rule and reign your internal world through the fruit of the Spirit.

The soul is the moral and emotional nature of human beings. it has been described as the mind, will and emotions.
