"You need to feel to heal"

It is that simple and yet so complex. Because if you have never been taught how to feel your emotions, how do you do it?

So many of us are stuck in our mind, trying to fix our way out of our emotional problems. When in reality, what is needed is just to sit with the emotions, give them space, and let them be—this way, they will naturally flow through you and leave your body. Thus the saying, "the only way out is through."

If you are a person with a lot of thoughts, try this practice:

Find a quiet, undisturbed place and just sit with your emotions. Focus on your breathing and bodily sensations. Does it hurt anywhere? Is there numbness? Discomfort? If you find any (give it time), just look at it, lovingly look at it. Let it grow; don't be scared, just let it be, let it breathe, give it the space it needs to release the stuck energy. Practice this as often as possible, and step by step, you will become a master at feeling.
