Emotional Harmony
When you experience emotional stress it is a sign that you are at war with yourself and your world. You may blame external forces for the way you feel, but the truth is that your negative feelings are inside you. It is there, inside you, that they need to be resolved if you are serious about your desire for harmony.
We are attached to finding fault with the people and circumstances in our lives. As long as we think they are to blame we do not have to take responsibility for our own feelings and we don’t have to change. Only when our will to change becomes greater than our fear of change we have the opportunity to end our cycles of suffering.

We gain the will to change from two sources. The first source is suffering. This is the long and difficult path. Certainly suffering matures us, but the price is high and the change is slow. A better way is to make the conscious decision to change through the insight that staying the same will bring only more pain.
Being proactive in your desire for change can save you much pain. When you make that decision with great heart-felt determination, and practice skillful approaches to self-transformation, you can see your life improving quickly.
Skillful approaches are not limited to learning and collecting more knowledge. They are about practice. Only consistent practice has the power to dissolve self defeating patterns of thought, emotion, and behavior which we have built for life times. Regular practice has the power to set you free.
You can dissolve stressful emotional patterns directly with Open Attention.
Open Attention, also known as ‘Presence,’ directs you to connect with your feelings to allow the internal healing potential of the body-mind to dissolve them as quickly as possible. And it does not only dissolve the feeling of the present moment, but also the unconscious compulsion to repeat the same cycles of suffering over and over again (the painbody).
In the process of practice you will systematically overcome the habit of being in conflict within yourself. Openness and Attention are the fundamental building blocks of love. Open Attention is therefore the conscious application of the power of love for healing.

Love is the best medicine.
“When something bothers me I almost automatically start using Open Attention and the stress goes away. I can physically feel it. I don’t have the burning in the pit of my stomach. Instead there is warmth. The stress just doesn’t stay long.”
