Sadness Sit: Let's Be Real

There are no "bad" or "negative" emotions. Difficult? Uncomfortable? Sure. But they all require space and attention, including sadness. By naming it, and not shaming it, we honor health and authenticity. Jerilea guides by using brain-friendly repetition and heart-soothing empathy. This meditation is not meant to numb or avoid, because that's not healthy. All of you is welcome here.

While sadness is part of the human experience, it is not to be confused with clinical or major depression. If your ability to cope with sadness is overwhelmed, seek assistance from a mental health provider.

Feelings, of course, hearing you say it, it makes so much sense why they are called that.
Thank you for this invitation to hold space for something which can be deafeningly, blindingly overwhelming. 🙏

Really helpful, needed to just sit with my oewn sadness than pushing it away and shaming it! Thank you so much💛

Thank you so much for this. It helped me be present with my sadness, instead of being overwhelmed by it or trying to push it away.

Thank you for holding this space of empathy for what is. Naming, not shaming. Knowing it will pass without pushing the feelings away 🙏🏼
