Sometimes the path to feeling better passes through rough spots that feel terrible. Ducking, dodging, denying or averting your attention can provide a temporary reprieve but, just like taking cough medicine for symptomatic relief, it doesn’t actually get rid of the underlying issue. Lasting relief only comes when feelings are fully felt and accepted. Experiencing emotions in the light of your conscious awareness allows them to arise and pass away, leaving you free of their burden…
And wiser.

This is one of the things that was a brand-new concept to me from studying your course. I have been very consciously healing by feeling this morning and last night, and it was amusing to see this particular gratitude on this particular day. But I’m learning to see what’s “in it for me …” with lots of things.
Thanks.
