HJ: Difficult emotions can be doorways to deep self healing and awareness, but they can also be uncomfortable and so we tend to suppress or try to escape them… but, counterintuitively, accepting and embracing them is the key to having them pass rapidly and being able to see the wisdom that they contain for us. Asking yourself the question, “Why am I having this reaction to this situation?” or going even deeper, “What must I believe is true in order to be having this reaction?” will allow you to discover the root cause of the negative emotion. As you then begin to heal this part of yourself, the negative emotion stops arising altogether. However, in order to understand where it comes from in the first place, you must not suppress or escape, you must accept what is happening knowing there is great wisdom within it for you. Acceptance is ultimately the key to freedom, healing and full liberation of consciousness.
