Emotional Structure: Mapping Feelings
First we have to define the feeling. A feeling is an emotion, both at the physical and psychological levels, which we position in our perceptions depending on the persons who shape us, as well as on the society we live in.
To position a feeling we have to know which the limits are, both maximum and minimum, which we can position in our perceptions, and these are:
a. Very good
b. Very bad
In the image below I drew the graphic on which we’ll classify the feeling with respect to a person (mother, father, brother, etc.). This classification will be made by dragging the green bar in the direction which you consider to fit the question best.

To find out each individual’s position in your emotional structure, there will be questions like:

In the same time we have to map also the relationships between each individual and his/her parents and we’ll do this by asking a question that may have a single answer or multiple answers.

The entire mapping can be created if each of your will answer the questions honestly.
In the next post I'll explain to you the affective map that will contain the above questions, plus other values of reference.
