How Wrong Is Anxiety As a Feeling

I have finally begun to realize that being afraid or feeling anxious does not mean that something is wrong. It is only my body alerting me that I need to bring myself into greater balance.

Taking a Break From Suffering

I can see over and over that taking a conscious breath creates the internal space to quiet the mind and see what’s next. This is true evidence of my own power from inside out to break suffering.

Do Negative Emotions Mean Something Is Wrong

The truth is, I have realized that negative emotions have never meant something bad about me. But my resistance to these emotions ironically tends to reinforce and amplify false perceptions about me.
