Meditation. Emotions. Continued.

Take your time reading each sentence and maybe close your eyes when you pause. Think and feel.

"Proactively welcome your emotions.

With your eyes open or closed, welcome the environment and sounds around you: the air on your skin, sensations where your body touches the surface that's supporting it, the feeling of the emotion that's present in your body. Now note where and how you feel this emotion, and describe the sensations that best represent this emotion. Now imagine this emotion walking in through a door. Go with the first image that arrives. What does your emotion look like? What is it shape, form or size? If it's a human being, how old is he or she? How is he or she dressed? Take a few moments and welcome the shape and form it takes. Next imagine this emotion standing or sitting a comfortable distance in front of you.

Ask it, "What do you want?" Listen to what it has to say.

Ask it, "What do you need?" Listen

Ask it, "What action are you asking me to take in my life?"

Take a few moments to reflect on what you are experiencing in your body and mind. When you are ready, open your eyes and return to the state of wakefulness., thanking yourself for setting aside time to meditate. Take time to write down actions that came to mind that will help you process this emotion, and make a commitment to follow through with them in your daily life." ~Richard Miller for YJ.

P.S. My emotion was the sun touching my skin, noises from the world waking up while I sit with my eyes closed in complete peace. I saw the creature from "Spirited away". It was smiling and reminded me how important it is to take care of yourself.

Share your emotions!
