Riding The Wave Of Emotion (DBT)

A brief practice to "ride the wave" of an emotion. Instead of thinking about the emotion, acting on it, or trying to push it away, notice the sensations of the emotion by tuning into the feelings in the body. When we simply FEEL the feelings, we might find that they go up and down, much like waves. We also increase the ability to tolerate discomfort and increase our confidence in turning towards emotional states. Adapted from Dialectical Behavioral Therapy created by Marsha Linehan
