In this blog, you will learn a meditation technique that is simple, yet incredibly effective in managing your emotions.
You know those moments when you feel a surge of uncomfortable emotions like anger, fear, or nervousness? We often try to suppress these feelings or project them onto others.
When we suppress, the feelings turn into poison affecting our health in many ways. When we express ourselves, we face so many repercussions.
But here’s an alternative approach to safely let go of these emotions.
The technique involves consciously acknowledging these uncomfortable emotions when they arise.
Instead of pushing them away, you name them very slowly and deliberately, three times.
For instance, if you’re feeling anger, you’d say, “anger, anger, anger.”
What’s remarkable is that by the third time you’ve named the emotion, your awareness of it becomes so strong that you realize it’s just a passing feeling – it doesn’t define who you are.
This realization makes it much easier to let go of the emotion.
What’s great about this practice is its versatility. You can do it privately, maybe with your eyes closed, or you can even use it in social situations like at the office.
Imagine you’re in a meeting and irritation starts to build up – you can silently say, “irritation, irritation, irritation” while maintaining eye contact with your colleagues. It’s a subtle yet powerful way to manage your emotions and take responsibility for them.
This meditation technique can be a game-changer in your emotional well-being. It’s very useful in releasing unhelpful feelings and regaining your inner peace.
Give it a try when you have a moment, and see how it works for you.
We wish you serenity and emotional balance on your journey to wellness.
