We don't choose to have difficult emotions. They are not ours to claim. We didn't create them, we can release them, and they don't define us. We can find a little relief at the moment by choosing to not hang on to difficult emotions. Photo by Julia Caesar on Unsplash

Feel better after only 3 minutes :)
It was a very peaceful and pleasant meditation. It reminded me that feelings don't define who I am; I didn't create them, so I can't claim them. A simple, but very important, message that I need to hear every so often to keep it fresh in my mind. Very thankful!

My meditation
I myself can only let things go that are having an effect on me.

Letting go
It's very difficult for me to let go of emotions that seem to crop up uncontrollably. I don't quite have the know how yet to be able to take charge of my own mind or just be able to notice my own thoughts without reacting. Hopefully CBT will help with this.

Emotions
I learned that even with my eyes closed, I can see and feel the light of giving up the negative emotions that others bestow upon me during the day

Be Kind and Let Go
I learned that I should be kinder to myself, and in order to do that, I must learn to let go of the stress and anxiety that I hold inside of me.

Stress
I learned that I have no control over the past and should learn from my mistakes to yield a better future

This is not me this is not mine
Letting things go, especially things you are stressing about is a kindness you do for yourself.

Let go
I should let go of anger and resentment towards all that have hurt me. I should spread love not hate. I should not dwell on those who abandoned me or are not in my life anymore. I should be content with myself and appreciate all the good things in life right now.

Letting it go
My sadness is not me, that I'm not a sad person and it does not reflect my personality. I'm allowed to feel sad but it is not who I am, I'm not a sad person. It is kind to myself to let it go and I love myself more than to give into my sadness and hold onto it.
