I am a masters level psychotherapist and I absolutely agree with everything you said. I am so grateful that you mentioned the connection with the mind and the body because I think it's something that people forget about or don't even know about! I also love that you allude to the concept of radical acceptance ("Remember that when you fight the flow of the storm, it will consume you"), which is such an important and beneficial concept. I would only add two things: 1) People should practice diphragmatic breathing while doing this. This is simply taking big deep breaths into your stomach, rather than into your lungs. By doing this, you begin a physiological reaction cycle that naturally calms and soothes your mind and body. This will help people feel more in control when engaging in this difficult, but incredibly beneficial process that you describe. 2) As I just mentioned, this process can be difficult and potentially overwhelming depending on the severity of the pain people are dealing with (i.e. - past abuse, assault, etc.). It takes a tremendous amount of courage to explore within and if it becomes too overwhelming, it is also incredibly courageous to seek help from a kind and understanding counselor, therapist or psychologist. Thanks again for the fantatic information! What a lovely article! I am a masters level psychotherapist and I absolutely agree with everything you said.

I go for a quick walk around the block or for a longer timeout with my dog or a luxurious window shopping spree lingering over pretty things .... Climbing stairs works - going for a drive - dancing to my wedding CD. ANYTHING is better than stewing in that dense, unhappy, critical "blame" or "poor me" space. PLUS - have you ever noticed how many more things go wrong when you're feeling down or angry? A month ago I was on a long drive, stewing over my husband's actions when a pebble nicked my windshield. I knew why! and immediately turned on the radio to find something - a song, a talk show - anything that would help me move out of that energy. Another BIG sign that I am in dense emotional energy is fatigue. Angry, blaming, critical energy is very, very tiring. I know all about that one! Great topic - thanks!
