Releasing The Pressure Of Emotions

Here’s a Sample of the “Releasing The Pressure Of Emotions” Guided Meditation Script:

Releasing the Pressure Valve

Some emotions carry an especially strong energy.

The mind becomes highly active, and the body grows tense.

This often happens when you are angry, anxious, or overwhelmed.

In these moments, you can benefit from “letting off some steam.”

You can use this exercise to relieve pressure in the moment and bring some softness to your experience.

Begin by closing the eyes and tuning in to the breath.

Fill the chest completely and empty it smoothly and slowly.

Take a few deep breaths like this, resting your attention on the rise and fall of the chest.

Recognize what you are feeling.

In an effort to not own it completely or allow it to consume you, try to give it a name that evokes a little love.

For example, if you’re feeling angry, you may notice that “Angry Sally” is present.

Or you can give it a name like “Little Fred.”

This will help you separate yourself from the emotion while also encouraging you to deal with it from a place of sweetness.

See if you can find a location in the body where the emotion is present.

You may feel tightness in the chest, a pit in the stomach, or tension in the shoulders.
