Accepting Emotions As They Are

Many of us have trained ourselves very well to suppress emotions as they arise, perceiving them as unproductive, not allowed or simply, undesirable. Our emotions though, are our bodies way of communicating to us and guiding us back to our alignment and sense of wholeness. Meeting our emotions as they are, not as we'd like them to be, can sometimes be the best way to welcome a wave of self-acceptance and grounding into this moment. In this practice we use meditation as a training ground to increase our ability to meet our emotions as they are, as they arise. In this way we begin to meet ourselves, as we are.

It was nice, thank you!

I was feeling quite low before doing this meditation. It really lifted me up, even made me s bit emotional. Thank you, Al Jeffery!

That was exactly what I needed today, so good!

Very interesting and compelling way to look at your emotions. Thank you. I’ll come again

Another lovely practice from a great teacher. Soothing music and clear guidance. Thank you.

Al is so respectful of the listener. Always insightful; thx Al!

Yes! Meeting emotions where they are and noticing the tendency to want to attach a philosophical idea to them.

One of my favorite teachers - always feel better after a guided meditation session with Al! 🌟

I love the simplicity and efficacy of this practice. Thank you for your time and love 🙏🏽

Love it, thank you

Beautiful guided invitation to meet and accept emotions as they arise 🙏 thank you Al - love you 😽

Such a wonderful facilitation, found a new layer to peel back. the reminder I needed to meet the emotion without the story. thank you :)

Such a lovely meditation that can be used on any day, just to train your feeling-skill or to slow down when you need it. Loved the pace and the instructions. Thank you :)

This is great! I really liked how you mentioned emotions can be linked to a meaning and to let go of that....so helpful!!! 🙏🏼🧚🏼‍♂️✨

Sitting with my sadness with the way my partner treats me. It helps to acknowledge it, accept it, and feel it. Otherwise I carry it with me all day into all my interactions with others. After this meditation, I felt calm and in control.

Presenter feels genuine and natural. I feel he has an easy cadence and offers beautiful, mindful guidance. Thank you.

This meditation is one of the best I’ve ever done. It’s really helping me to meet and accept my feelings and to relax. Than you so much! I send you all of my love! 🙏❤️

My new favorite for connecting to that emotional space. The kind reminders to let the explanations for the feelings go were simple and didn't spark my guilt for "doing it wrong."

Revealing 😌 nice gentle approach to understanding our emotions 🙏 thank you 🌼

Just beautiful and what I needed to remember this morning. 🙏
