Emotional Release Meditation
This guided Emotional Release Meditation is an adaptation of Deepak Chopra's exercise. I recorded it to walk myself through it in a more meditative state instead of reading the prompts. The original script can be found here.
Find a comfortable place to sit and allow about 20 minutes for this exercise. I recommend having your journal close by for reflection after this powerful exercise.
If this doesn't end up working for you, another idea that Deepak Chopra mentioned, one that I use with my clients, is to write letters. You write those painful experiences out in first person (yourself), in the second person (the other person involved), and finally the third-person (I like a recommend a wise and impartial elder). It can be helpful for perspective, clarity, and emotional release.
