You don’t have to revisit your childhood to find the source of your pain and frustrations. That approach can add more story and energy to your discomfort. Life will continue to give you opportunities to heal by presenting you with circumstances that evoke the same feelings as the original wound. When a painful and familiar emotion arises, refrain from naming it. Meet it neutrally by feeling the accompanying sensations in your body. Healing doesn’t happen back there in the story of the past, it happens…

Right here, now.
