Finding vitality and sitting with undesirable feelings

The speaker discusses the importance of finding practices that bring vitality and energy during times of grief and stress. These practices can include being around people who make you laugh, engaging in activities that bring joy, and surrounding yourself with beauty, art, and music. The speaker emphasizes the need to sit with undesirable feelings and emotions rather than numbing them, as numbing not only numbs the bad feelings but also the good ones. She suggests that sitting with discomfort and learning from it can lead to personal growth and resilience.
