Feelings
I had these horrible feelings in my stomach from overthinking and all i wanted was to get them out. But now I've learned to allow them to stay. And I'm glad I did.

Using anger
Overwhelming anger brought me this meditation today. My anger was being driven by feelings of abandonment, mistrust, and isolation.

Anger
Anger is an emotion I've always had trouble dealing with. I'm very tempered but as I've gotten older I've learned to control it somewhat but sometimes there are times where it becomes difficult to have it under control. Today was one of those difficult days & I remembered scrolling through this meditation so I tried it & I actually do feel calmer. I learned it's okay to feel this emotion & not wish for it to go away. Being with it & embracing it makes it easier for it to actually pass.

Most useful meditation yet!
I have been searching for a way to cope with difficult emotions and I was very upset about something at the time I did this. What a difference it made! Instead of walling off my feelings or spinning in my mind about it for hours on end, this gave me a lovely, practical way to move through my feelings. If only the world could learn this meditation.

Finding an answer
Not every trouble in life has to have an answer, letting go helps just as well.

Soften, Soothing, Allowing
Anxiety is the most uncomfortable feeling and my instinct is to make it go away immediately. I love this meditation because it allows space for acceptance of my anxiety. It's allowed to be here.

Grief feels like a hole in the pit of my stomach
Somehow, recognizing that my emotions effect me physically validates them. Makes them more real and tangible. And maybe that will help me accept the painful ones and maybe the accepting will help ease the pain.
