Acceptance

Life isn`t eternal sunshine. We all face times of anger, sadness, anxiety and frustrations.

 

The question is how do we respond to those emotions followed by uncomfortable thoughts?

 

With resistance or acceptance?

 

Relaxation and a sensation of inner peace can be felt, when acceptance is practiced:

 

-          Consciously notice feelings, thoughts, bodily sensations and resistance

-          Acknowledge and embrace the actual experience

This is not an invite to staying passive forever. It helps to ease the subjective perception of the present moment.

 

If needed, take action to change the circumstances as next step.
