Acceptance

Sometimes when you are dealing with a big challenge/a difficult situation, no matter how hard you try or how many different tools you pull out of your box, nothing seems to work.  When all else fails, here is one more thing you can try: acceptance.

Simply give in to your feeling.  Acknowledge how you feel and feel into it.  Sit with the feeling without judgement.  This is non-reaction in action.  Know that this too will pass.  Give yourself permission to be sad or angry or whatever.  Live it consciously and above all be gentle with yourself.  You are hurting and feeling it is part of the healing.
