NOTE

Embrace Feelings to Find Peace

Experiencing significant suffering can sometimes eliminate the option to ignore emotions, fostering a sense of gratitude for unavoidable feelings. With age and increased choice, one may become more aware of how cognitive processes can dominate life, often leading to a disconnection from the body. The modern tendency to view bodily decline as failure can exacerbate this disconnect. It is essential to create a safe space for feeling emotions, as ignoring them can lead to their diminishing presence over time. Embracing feelings helps in achieving emotional depth and stability.
