Listener question: A couple of years ago i participated in a course that was all about accepting feelings in the body. So every day i meditated and tried to feel what was going on in my body. But instead of feeling things, my mind just became so stirred up that i got very depressed. Now when i hear you say: “just feel it”, i notice the depression coming up again. I’m scared of it. The last time it wasn’t helpfull at all to explore my feelings. So why would this time be different? When I ‘zoom in’ on Anxiety, i get really identified with it. Then it’s all about me. And that’s when i get very lost. Not talking about it - not being focussed on it - seems to do a better job then the zooming in.
