In need of a lift today, from this lovely community whilst I navigate some family challenge. No matter how much Zen wisdom some days just suck and today is one of them! ‘Let go or be dragged’ is a Zen proverb. And so whilst I feel the pain, I remain anchor in the present moment, knowing that emotions are just like the clouds, they come and go and never stay the same. Thank you folks

I’m going to feel… I heard this the other day on tv and for some reason, it stood out more than all the other millions of time I’ve heard this phrase. There are several variations of this, all guessing at an unsupportive emotion When I go on stage I’m going to be terrified I know I’m going to feel disappointed It’s going to be very upsetting I’ll be gutted when this happens All decisions made long before the event. Every time you catch yourself in this negative emotion loop, pause, remind yourself it’s a story you are telling yourself and either choose a more supportive emotion or remind yourself that it’s not real because it hasn’t happened and move on. Every time we play out negative emotions in our head before they even happen, our body doesn’t understand the difference between that and reality so it all gets stored in our body and we wonder why things play out exactly as we imagined.
