Today, I write about connecting with my bodily feelings.

The nine core feelings are:

1) Anger (irritation, frustration, ...)

2) Fear (dread, concern, threatened, ...)

3) Pain (sad, hurt, shock, ...)

4) Joy (happy, peace, pleasure, ...)

5) Passion (enthusiasm, desire, eagerness, ...)

6) Love (compassion, warmth, fondness, affection, ...)

7) Shame (embarrassment, unworthy, ...)

8) Guilt (regretful, sorrowful, remorseful, ...)

9) Loneliness (rejected, abandoned, isolated, ...)

"Forcing ourselves to be Happy is not genuine or productive. Being honest about what we feel, while remaining calm and aware is the real work." - Pueblo Yung; [source]

This definitely was harder for me in the past than now. Personally, at this time, it's being able to detect and accept a feeling like anger/fear that’s key.

The learnable process I use once a feeling is detected:

(Gratitude to my therapist, therapist's methods [pending hyperlink], and Dr. Ronald J Frederick's book - Living Like you mean it; Chapter 6):

a) Accepting what I feel (being honest about it without judgment),

b) giving attention (in the body),

c) slowing down (as in meditation to focus on the bodily feeling),

d) giving it way (feel the "flow of energy" in the body), and

e) Reflecting on what I just felt!

The connect indeed was new.

The following work, Colors, encompass thoughts, questions (about sexuality, gender), curiosity, open-mindedness, and peace.

Wave–particle duality.

Scientific Theory that holds that all particles exhibit a wave nature and vice-versa.

That short (macroscopic particles) and long wave-lengths constitute everything.
