Cultivating a Calm Mind 30 Day Mindfulness Challenge DAY 24 – ALLOW AN EMOTION
Your challenge for today is to simply allow an emotion.
So often we either try to avoid feeling emotions or try to ignore them. But it’s already there! And emotions are just energy in the body that need to be released.
Step 1 – recognise you are feeling an emotion and what it is.
Step 2 – notice where you are feeling it in your body.
Step 3 – say out loud what it is and where, e.g. I am feeling sad right now and I can feel it as a heaviness in my chest.
Step 4 – simply allow yourself to feel that emotion for 60-90 seconds without trying to fix it or analyse or beat yourself up about it.
Did you notice a difference after the 90 seconds?
