Thank you for revealing how low you can get after sessions..I've had this happen as well. And my first approaches to mindfulness felt actually...kind of numbing and there was a part of me that felt judged by the practice of mindfulness itself...ha! The biggest step that I've taken that has helped is to know that mindfulness allows us to be gentle with ourselves....to treat ourselves with compassion and care. Therefore, if mindfulness feels like one more "burden" or judgement, then backing away, even from mindfulness itself....is the answer, for me at least. But in the end, thank you for being open enough to share this. Blessings! mcl!
Thanks for this!
