Pause Before Overreacting

We are used to labeling the world and every experience we have as "good" or "bad" based on the stories we create around them, and this can keep us living in an emotional rollercoaster. The antidote to this is learning to see our thoughts and emotions for what they really are: simple sensory experiences passing through our awareness.

This guided meditation teaches us how to do this by noting and labeling every sensation, thought, and emotion in an objective and neutral way, so we can simply observe them and relate to them calmly.
