Often, we are faced with emotions that we may act on in unwise ways, whether from craving, injury, or another cause. Sitting with difficult emotions helps us find a way through them rather than resorting to a quick short-term fix that leaves a long-term scar. Especially in recovery from addiction, being able to sit with difficulty means avoiding a relapse. This meditation, developed by Recovery Dharma, helps exercise our ability to remain with discomfort without acting rashly.

A gentle, supportive practice that assists the exploration of difficulty & our habits around dealing with it & with suffering. Thank you!

I liked it. It was a chance for me to revisit difficult emotions, not necessarily a specific situation. It was good to practice with this! Will re-use this!

I have to get used to your voice. It takes time and practice for me to get used to a new teaching voice. And maybe too, it was a painful and scary. That said, really helped me today. The feeling I had generated was a feeling that is at least 56 years old in me. I’m 62. So scary to let it stay; so helpful when you said to just feel around the edges, with love and compassion. Thank you thank you. Think this needs to be a regular practice for awhile.
