Hey Akash, how are you doing today?

Sometimes when you notice negative feelings bubbling up in you, your brain tries to find a coherent narrative to fit those feelings. But feelings are ephemeral by nature, and so your brain will often miss-attribute your feelings to certain things or aspects about you. And that causes you a lot of problems. For example: “negative feelings bubbling up cause something happened”, “it’s because you’re ugly!”, “it’s because you’re unlovable”, etc.

Next time you see negative (or even positive) feelings bubbling up, try not to think, rather just observe those feelings inside your body, breathe them in, feel them, let it flow through in and around you.

Have a productive day my friend
Akash
