Recently I heard therapy explained In three parts.
Be vulnerable enough to truly feel your feelings
See if you can sit with the feelings
Change perspectives.
I found this REVOLUTIONARY!
In today's practice we open to the possibility of being with emotions, we touch into the experience of feeling (perhaps a more challenging feelings) and we shift our view so we can see ourselves as we really are and not how we think we are. This is a new tool in your tool kit and the coolest part is you can practice during the day when life is feeling overwhelming and you're in need of some compassion.
Check it out ... I swear you'll see the power of this one!
