26. Saying "Yes" to Hard Emotions

Ah yes. Our natural impulse is to resist hard emotions. Contract against hard emotions. And yet....that only makes them stick around and become more intense. In general, we're always more on one side or another: contracted or open, in fear or love, tense or relaxed (emotionally/physically). When we say "yes" to the contractions, it creates space to open channels to process the contraction and find relaxation. Contraction = pain. Openness = relief. We can literally just think the thought "I radically approve of everything I'm going through right now" or "I completely accept and approve of how I feel right now," and it will start the relaxation process which relieves emotional/physical pain.
