Does this sound like the set of challenges you might be facing?
- When a big emotion hits, it becomes the whole world
- I keep straining to "get into" a meditative state like awareness is something I have to switch on and aim
- When a feeling takes me over I become it completely
- Whatever I touch in my morning sit completely evaporates the second real life starts, and the calm stays locked in "meditation time"
- I keep selling this change as a clear win and can’t understand why people are dragging their feet
Practices that may help
- Recognize aware presence within strong emotion
When a strong emotion arises, shift to noticing the awareness in which the emotion appears rather than being swept by it.
Non-Dual Awareness, Made Practical - Non-Dual Awareness, Made Practical
Non-dual awareness is a mode of consciousness in which attention is no longer exclusively identified with the contents of experience (thoughts, sensations, feelings) but rests as the open, aware space in which those contents appear. Loch Kelly’s "effortless mindfulness" approach uses short recognition exercises to shift into this mode; research on the broader open-monitoring family of practices finds reductions in anxiety and rumination, though non-dual awareness itself is a newer research area with limited controlled trials. - Glimpse practice: a 10-second recognition of aware space
Pause, drop the question "What am I aware of?" and simply notice that awareness is already on.
