Reframing my relationship with emotions has radically changed my life.

This essay discusses:

understanding the difference between 'top-down' vs. 'bottom-up' protocols feels like an essential distinction to make!

Powerful words: "Because in that picture above I’m dead. And I’d rather be alive with the measly results you get because that’s what the human experience happens to contain. And when you know what you’re feeling because you’ve learned to notice, most of these “bad” emotions aren’t even that bad."
