Feelings come and go

Tilt your head downward and imagine that, in the center of your chest, there's a big open box. What feelings are floating around in there?

If you watch for a while, you'll notice that eventually, the feelings will all float away from the box, or shrink down in size, or dissipate in intensity. There's a constant swirl of emotions going on in there, one that never seems to stand still.

From right here, looking down at yourself, you can observe your feelings as they do what feelings do. It's just like watching the ocean's waves; in and out, they rise up and then fall away.

Remember this: no matter how intense your feelings are, they will always eventually pass.
