Yoga Farm Ithaca Educators Daniela & Jeannie respond to a student question; ‘How do I ride the waves of my emotions and not be swallowed up by them & How do I avoid the trap of spiritual bypassing...?’
Their response teaches the very simple, actionable, and potent process of how to feel our emotions as sensations in the body vs what we typically do - thinking about and replaying opinions, evidence, and justifications which source the emotional response.
They provide insights on how this process is the antidote to spiritual bypassing, rushing to ‘see the positive in things’ or an attempt to ‘let it go’ while denying actual emotions that seek acknowledgment and healthy expression.
