Some emotions can be painfully difficult to feel and move through, which can cause us to reject and avoid them. However, this can often lead to more pain which can become unbearable. If this is something you are struggling with, you may be seeking a way through that brings freedom, rather than more pain.

This practice was recorded live as John was leading a client from his Embodied Women's Relationship Immersion through a 2-step process for working with difficult emotions and triggers. It includes a detailed description of the practice by John in the last few minutes.

Step 1: Go into the sensation and let the wisdom of your body express and move the energy from the center of the sensation.

Step 2: Breathe in the experience that you are rejecting and with the exhale, open as it.

John argues that most of the pain we feel is the rejection of what is, so this practice accomplishes two things: 1. It moves the energy that needs to move, and 2. It realigns your capacity to be with pain and other feelings you are rejecting.

If you would like to expand your capacity to feel and move through painful emotions, then try this 5-minute practice.
