4 steps to being able to take it
So, the next time you are feeling bad, remember these four things:

1. Emotions are often short-lived and transitory.

2. Think about your experience in the present moment rather than falling prey to words like always and forever.

3. Take a deep breath and tolerate the painful emotion, holding on to the certainty that it won’t last forever.

4. Make sure to be present and actually notice when your emotions change. Sometimes the difference is subtle, but once you begin to see the transitions, you will have more confidence that your pain will eventually change, too.
