How to Heal Emotional Pain in 2023 | Eckhart Tolle on Mental Health

[@chickadee677]

My parents were killed in a car crash and the next year my fiancé died of lung cancer. I was devastated. I listened to Eckhart and Tich Nhat Hahn looking for relief. Tich Nhat Hahn said to find the pain in your body, breath into it and tell the pain, "I know you are there." then he said to take deep breathes into the pain and reassure yourself by saying, "I will take good care of you." That was a few years ago, and any time I feel terrible emotional pain, I stay in the present and breathe into my pain and I say "I know you are there, I will take good care of you." Thank god for these two men.

@@accidentcellar6307 Michael singer helps me with this. He talks about relaxing every part of your body whenever a painful thought or feeling arises instead of trying to think your way out of it. When we relax and breathe it’s a form of surrender and is the only way to release trapped emotions

[@Oo27254]

@@accidentcellar6307 It's about having acceptance for your pain. "I hear you and I'm here for you", like embracing a crying child. The motivation shouldn't be to get rid of it. Trying to get rid of your pain is rejecting it.

This video really hit me hard, just a few weeks ago, my partner, whom I’ve been with for five years, decided to leave me for someone else. I love him so much, and I can’t imagine my life with anyone else. I’ve tried everything to forget about him, but it feels impossible. I’ve even tried to get him back, but nothing seems to work. I feel so lost and frustrated, and I can’t get him out of my mind. I don’t even know why I’m sharing this here, but I really miss him and can’t stop thinking about him.

[@ElissaLockhart-x9i]

I’m so sorry you’re going through this. Letting go of someone you love deeply is incredibly hard. I was in a similar situation-my 12-year relationship ended, and it was devastating. Like you, I couldn’t just let go, and I did everything I could to get him back. Eventually, I sought help from a spiritual counselor, and he helped me get my partner back.

[@MorganBrooks-s3h]

That’s amazing. How did you find a spiritual counselor? How can I reach him?

[@ElissaLockhart-x9i]

His name is FatherAkabu . He’s a great spiritual counselor and he helped me bring back my partner.

The quality of our peace and happiness are the direct result of the stories we tell ourselves, the vast majority of the time nothing dramatic is actually happening in our real lives but in our internal mental world it can easily become full on non stop drama and chaos if we lose awareness 🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@empty_seat]

I did lose awareness, and I do have that drama now… how do I get it back.

[@johngreen4683]

@@empty_seat hi E S, its important not to engage with our minds thoughts, feelings and stories but to simply remind ourselves that " this isn't real" no more no less. Please don't analyse and reason why its not real, just accept thoughts are just thoughts and feelings are just feelings and they don't exist anywhere but in our minds. The more we simply remind ourselves " this is not real" the more safe our minds will feel and be prepared to let the thoughts feelings and stories go.. 🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@empty_seat]

@@johngreen4683 okay i will give it a go. Can I replace some bad old habitual thoughts with new ones tho?

[@johngreen4683]

@@empty_seat hi ES, yes 100% you can. I was plagued for years with fearful habit thoughts and false beliefs, the biggest thing i learned and came to truly accept was that, we can not think our way out of a problem that is created by and maintained by thinking in the first place. Please don't try and analyse and rationalise your way out of this unhappy relationship with your mind, please just trust your way out by simply reminding yourself " this is not real". The really good news is none of us need to fix our minds, our minds will fix themselves just fine, all we need to do is change our relationship with our mind and the thoughts and feelings its produces. Please just let me know if you need any help or support, be it today, tomorrow, next week or next month. I am very very happy to help in any way i can, you will get ttere and you are going to be more than ok, you really are 🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@empty_seat]

Thank you Eckhart...what works for me is, well of course practicing presence consistently and while in presence I consciously hold magnified gratitude in my heart center, as well as compassion and love but I feel super grateful for nothing other than the absolute perfection of this present moment...for the now and when I do that and lock into the master frequency of the heart magic happens that is indescribable... I do this even when I'm in pain this present moment is absolutely perfect..It doesn't matter if I am personally experiencing pain as that does not take anything away from the perfection of this now moment. It truly is amazing and it can be used in manifestation work and self-healing..I've experienced miracles in both doing this...hope this comment helps someone. Namaste

[@lindapelle8738]

Your direction on how you accomplish this would be greatly appreciated. I deal with chronic facial nerve pain, many years after dental surgery.

[@TheMediumChannel]

@@lindapelle8738 I do offer that and this was my way of giving direction.. starts with Presence, meditation and working with a practice I do religiously called”Heart-Brain Coherence” and what I did was made the reality of perfect health more real in my mind than the physical suffering I was experiencing. It took me three years though if I had no more at the time I probably could’ve done it in a lot less time. I just don’t have the time nor the space to explain the steps on a video comment stream. I have done courses though, and I have several uploads on my channel that I explain more and people are healing. I also recommend people to look into Joe Dispenza, he is amazing and explains how this is done better than anyone I know of.

[@justinwiebeguitar]

Excellent. I like the part about the negative energy from the pain body being able to be converted to presence. That is definitely a good thing.

I'm currently processing some newly recovered trauma memories from 23 years ago, and practicing presence is so helpful in this. It's bizarre to feel depressed and raw, but to not *identify* with those feelings anymore. I'm sad things happened, but accepting that they did. Different from dissociation, because I'm observing the feelings and the memories themselves, which are memories of physical sensations and feelings. Layers! This is such a good way to process these things.

you need to work on ur trauma also with the shining light of consciousness, u need to see which even of ur childhood is that created the emotions that are still stuck, u need to grieve, be sad, be afraid go in that past history imagination and provide the child what u need to provide to fulfill his need of that moment and then ur emotional release very fast than just having shining the light of consciousness

Greetings from Chattanooga, TN. Thanks for sharing your wisdom and your time. These days the negative thought I hear the most is, "You could have done better, why didn't you?" And the constant replaying of what I did just then and the overwhelming urge to find out why I did that or thought that.

[@yohenson]

I have that too. Guilt is a horrible and silent attacker. Only meant for us to stand up behind what we think is good for us. And we are too lazy it yells at us. That’s guilt for you. But too much of it can cause you to cave in and escape all that yelling. So I guess we need to let it yell but keep doing the good stuff. Until we don’t need to be yelled at by ourselves.

[@davidharrison2099]

If you could have done better you would have done better. We can only act effectively from the state of consciousness that we are in at the time. Don’t feel guilty and don’t beat yourself up. Just learn to be more present and move on. We could all handle things a little better at times but don’t. Such is life and learning.

[@ew_323]

I had a near-drowning experience when I was about 6 or 7 in a public pool. It was my sister who kept pushing me under and I got to the point where I could not breathe. I finally decided to just breathe in the water and next I remember I was on the edge of the pool with the lifeguard pushing my chest and coughing and in trouble with my Mom when I got mad at my sister for pushing me under. It was never talked about. Since then, I've always had social anxiety, claustrophobia, and breath holding but didn't realize until today when I realized I felt like I was underwater and could not get a breath and that situation came back to my mind, looking up at the surface, not being able to reach it, and deciding to breath in the water when my lungs were going to burst. I thought this dying feeling is actually sort of peaceful. I've never processed this event with anyone. I didn't realize this event from so long I thought I had put it behind me was causing all this emotional pain in my life (I even became a class IV-V kayaker to 'prove' to myself I was no longer scared of water and was 'over' this event) . Like I didn't matter, was invisible, didn't deserve a breath, like the feeling of death/giving up would be more peaceful than living, etc. Life has been a 'struggle' since then, like the struggle under water. But now I can process it and observe it and the related emotions/messages/thoughts in a new way. I really like what @chickadee677 said about saying "I know you are there, I will take good care of you." to your pain. This book and discussion have totally opened my eyes. Thank you

It’s so funny that I didn’t make this connection until I saw this video. For me personally when I become lucid in my dreams, I’m often doing the same things Eckhart mentions about being aware of your hands your sorroundings and awakening in my dreams become aware. We need to do the same now.

[@nineangels7572]

He's right, turn your energy towards nature, stand in the sun, watch a bird, distract yourself using nature & the pain will subside.

[@K4113B4113]

I wouldn’t use the word distract as it suggests distance to the pain rather than presence with it.

[@Jeff-yb7qk]

Thank you thank you. I get lost again and again, and sometimes I totally lose my awareness and it feels like I have no choice but to lose it (even though I had a glimpse of knowing I did have a choice at the moment ..) I have been relatively conscious of my mind activity last two months and this month I totally lost it from a trauma in the relationship and it was like a very strong relapse of some drug addiction. hit me in the face so hard that I thought the peaceful state of the last two months was a sort of fraud... but you know. As Eckhart Tolle said, it also feels like it eventually leads to awakening because I can't live with such pain no more.. I just hope I quickly get to the level where there's less suffering even though I think suffering itself is very painful but also a part of the awakening process. Life is so mysterious...

Shifting to observe sensory perception is practically a fine step towards healing emotional pain. As Eckart mentioned, yet, the impact of emotional baggage persists for some time. For me, revival of thoughts could not be ceased and it's inevitable. In the light of extra awareness, thoughts can be separated from its' attached emotions. I experienced it and thought of sharing.

Be really alert and watch your mind so you don't create more suffering by 9:26 if you no longer feed the pain body The pain body also feeds through drama in relationships, enacting drama The pain body renews itself through Don't add to the pain body, It wants to feed, It wants your unconsciousness. Your not feeding it with your mind anymore and you not feeding it by drawn into insane drama. You just watching it It gradually dissipates and transmutes Write down repetitive thoughts you can catch that obscure your awareness That become part of your fictitious identity Then you have the burden to carry burden of an unhappy self Presence us arising , and it is gradually dissolving the pain body. Your work is not to renew your pain body through unconscious thinking. You have to be really careful and watch your mind, if you no longer feed the pain body through unconscious thinking..

My pain body seems to get activated through negative social media, others telling me of said media and sometimes myself. I do believe I have been able to enter the beginning fazes of presence through the presence meditation by feeling my body and later listening to the sounds around without making a distinction but some days I find it easier then others to enter presence and have been trying to determine why that is. For me when I enter presence it feels like I am opening up like a balloon and can feel the ends of infinite spirit energy that I am already connected to but forgot because of my limited ego causing me to forget.

How do we heal trauma and illuminate shadows through pure presence? It feels too passive or placating without progress. Avoidant. Yet on the other hand gripping to much leads to being crushed by undue confusion or heaviness when patient presence is necessary. How do I properly allow Grace and presence in all that I feel to break cycles? How do I not allow my isolation to honor my cycles affect interpersonal relationships? It all feels so cyclic. Where does true transformation lie?

[@classicbeatsbybhavye3724]

Wonderful dear Eckhart. Thanks

2:58 is your mind feeding it. You have a big pain body there which is not in itself bad thing, because a big pain body becomes a very strong motivating force to awaken. Be careful to examine your thinking. Enough Awareness to realise it. Let go of the thoughts. Be present. The pain body is fuel for presence

We were not respecting the boundaries we had set up. I felt like we were manipulating eachother. I also felt like I couldn’t control myself when it came to her. So I had to let go. I miss her.

What if it is some one/group who hurt your loved one, and there is not much you can do? The situation is not rectified. Then it becomes an ongoing painful experience. I am now physically sick and thinking about the issue keeps deepening the hurt and bad for my recovery. I am hoping for a recovery physically first and then touch the mental pain and work on it. It's so hard to get it my mind off. Maybe I should detach myself from the situation first. Maybe that's the first thing I need to do to first recover physically.
