Hi all,

This week I talk about how I start to self edit my feelings because they might not be the same as someone else's.  Or maybe someone else in the world is going through suffering so I shouldn't let myself experience hope, excitement, or joy.  I talk about my struggle in real time to allow myself to observe an emotion that comes up instead of judging it and evaluating weather I "should" feel that way or not.  The goal would be to observe the feeling, experience it, and let it pass without trying to change or judge it.  Why is this so hard? And why does society train us to think this way? 

I hope sharing my story with you helps you break free of thoughts that might be attempting to steal you joy. 

My mindful moment this week reminded me to be kind, because you truly never know what someone else is going through.

Be well my dears.

“Should is an asshole.”
