The first step is to simply feel what you’re feeling inside of your body.

How are you feeling?

Make sure you’re aware within your body. You don’t feel in the mind… you feel in the body. So let go of the thoughts, and the energies outside your body just now.

So when you’re ready, close your eyes… and think of whatever is upsetting or challenging for you… and just pay attention, observe what goes on in your physical body.

Allow yourself to really actually FEEL your feelings, deeply, completely, right now.

[There’s nothing to write down just yet... just close your eyes now and feel.]

Advanced Questions:

• Where are you feeling this sensation?
• Does what you’re feeling have a texture, color and movement?
• If your feeling was a cartoon character, describe it and give it a name.

Examples:

• I feel the pain like it’s blue and jagged, broken, it’s aching deeply and intensely in my heart or chest – ‘Blue broken aching heart’
• I just feel rage streaming out my eyes. It’s red and like fire. Just so much rage and anger – ‘Red raging eyes’
• I feel it everywhere and it’s kind of grey, or silver. But it’s just everywhere, moving a million miles an hour. It’s pure chaos. It’s fear – ‘Anxious silver hurricane of fear’ </aside>
