Yes, extremely important not to suppress emotions of any kind and not to act them out either. To stay relaxed and allow them to transmute inside, to complete themselves without having to be manifested in physical experience. This way, we make space inside us and spirit remains intact in us because that is what we are focusing on instead of ego. When we make space like this we free ourselves from patterns of behavior and experience and can experience compassion and love.
Interesting perspective. I agree that we need to “let go”of our anger. Confront it and use it constructively. Easier said than done. Requires a lot of self awareness.
Thank you for this article. It reminds me of an ACIM video by Keith Kavanagh I watched recently. Everyone will have their own way of applying this material. For me, it is helpful to remember that I can experience my emotions without building a narrative around them. When I can look at thoughts and emotions without judgment, they don't have such a hold on me and I can get on with being.
You're welcome! I appreciate you sharing your insight. That's a powerful approach—experiencing emotions without constructing narratives around them and observing thoughts and emotions non-judgmentally. It truly can help release their grip on us and allow for more authentic being in the present moment. I'll have to look for that ACIM Keith Kavanagh video!
