@yodelerty It does require a certain mindset yes. At first just learn how to observe your feelings and thoughts. Look at them without becoming entrenched in them. If you feel intense pain, for example, stand back and try simply noticing, "I'm in a whole lot of pain." It works for any feeling. Once you've learned to do this you'll be better at not panicking and getting wrapped up in how you feel. When this is the case you'll be able to gently guide yourself toward something that can help what you're feeling rather than trying to bludgeon your emotions by telling them (and yourself) that they're bad.
