How to use "Sublimations" in context?
Sublimations are psychological processes by which people change the magnitude or quality of their emotions. Sublimation is the substitution of one emotion or action for another that is more desirable or satisfying. Some common examples of sublimations are smoking cigarettes to relieve stress, daydreaming to escape from reality, and overeating to get high.
Sublimations can be healthy or unhealthy, helpful or harmful, but they are always a personal choice. Healthful sublimations allow people to take their emotions out in different, and often healthier, ways.
