10. Feel pain and joy as fully as you can

Allow yourself to feel things fully. Lean into pain, revel in your joy, and don’t put limitations on your feelings. Like fear, pain and joy are emotions that will help you understand yourself and ultimately realize that you are not your feelings.

Feeling pain and joy fully involves being present in the moment and embracing your emotions without judgment. To experience pain fully, allow yourself to acknowledge and process the emotions that come with it. Reflect on the lessons it might offer. For joy, immerse yourself in the positive experience, savoring the feelings and being grateful. Mindfulness practices, like meditation, can help you connect with your emotions more deeply.

People might run away from joy due to various reasons, such as past traumas, fear of vulnerability, or negative self-beliefs. Some individuals might be conditioned to expect disappointment, making it difficult to fully embrace positive emotions. Additionally, feeling joy can also make people feel vulnerable, as it opens them up to the possibility of loss or change. It's important to explore these underlying factors and work on addressing them in order to allow oneself to fully experience and enjoy moments of joy.


Feeling pain and joy fully is essential for a well-rounded human experience.
