First acknowledge judgement. (“Negative”).
Then acknowledge the dualistic belief the judgement is based on. (Negative & positive).
Then acknowledge the misidentification the belief & judgement is based on. (I am separate of negative & positive, as the knower that there is, negative and positive).
Then acknowledge the truth; the one which knows there is negative emotion & has to deal with it; are thoughts you’re aware of, and are not actually about or defining of you in any way.
Then acknowledge whatever emotion is experienced, without judgement, as guidance for thoughts.
Then don’t step in the same hole, by simply & effortlessly being aware of the discord of beliefs.
“Then”, notice this transpired only in thoughts, and not ‘in time’, and is no more than allowing thought to naturally align with feeling.
“Then”, now - blow the doors of this so called life. As the ever-present aliveness that Is; love first - and therein live fully, appreciatively, and unabashedly.
