Once your mind starts to become still, expect a lot of emotional crap to come to the surface.
If you think about it, your mind has been working in a particular way for years and years with a life driven by tasks and society’s goals.
With the onslaught of technology, there is no real quality time for introspection or to process one’s inner feelings.
Two weeks holiday here and there are not enough. You barely get a chance to rest.
It is no surprise, then, that feelings and emotions that have been buried in the subconscious for years suddenly start to come up.
It could be fear, guilt, shame, sadness, pain.
The important point is to be aware it is happening.
Let it happen.
Let those emotions out of your system.
Cry, shout, scream, do whatever you have to. This is healing.
On the flip side, positive emotions may overwhelm you.
Let that happen too.
Eventually, you will reach a point of balance.
