RE: Dealing with Our Negative Feelings, Emotions and Judgments: How to do it Better!
I just try to ignore it the best I can these days and not get caught up in the cycle, knowing it will pass. Not always easy cuz when you're in it you 're in it and it all seems real. But I know without a doubt that it will pass so I hang onto that. 😊
One of the things that has helped me a great deal is the insight that when we are "reactionary," a lot of times we are actually reacting to old memories, not to what's in front of us in the moment. We end up being furious at something... but it's actually related to some deceased aunt who said things a certain way, and the person we are speaking to is reminding us of that.
As you say, it will pass... and a moment of "wakefulness" will make us realize that we're not needing to get angry, at all.
Very true! 😊
