\\u2018Who is breathing?\\u2019
\\n
\\nThis is an important and helpful question we can ask ourselves.
\\n
\\nOf course, it is your body that\\u2019s breathing, and if it stops there will be some major problems.
\\n
\\nBut are you really in control of your breathing?
\\n
\\nIf you are, then see how long you can stop breathing before your body forces it to start again. \\U0001f601
\\n
\\nAnd what about your thoughts and emotions?
\\n
\\nAre YOU in control of them? Or do they just happen on their own?
\\n
\\nAs we ponder these important questions, we can learn about this whole process and shift our understanding.
\\n
\\nUltimately, we can identify less and give ourselves a 3rd person detached perspective.
\\n
\\nInstead of saying \\u2018I am angry\\u2019, we can say \\u2018My body feels anger right now.\\u2019
\\n
\\nAnd when we do this, it becomes much easier to accept the emotions, thoughts, and sensations in our bodies.
\\n
\\nIn this acceptance we release the suffering they cause us.
\\n
\\nIn the absence of suffering, we find our happiness.
\\n
\\nIn our happiness, we find our authentic self.
\\n
\\nAnd I promise you: you can do this. All it takes is a little practice.
\\n
\\nWhat are your thoughts on this?
