When sadness, fear, or anger arises, our automatic tendency is either to suppress the feeling or become completely consumed by it. In clinical open-monitoring mindfulness studies by Lutz et al. (2014) and Desbordes et al. (2012), training individuals to observe emotional waves without identifying with them develops enduring affective equanimity. The Emotion Observation Meditation Tool offers an experiential sanctuary to feel where the emotion registers in the flesh, name it gently, and observe it dissipate like morning mist without fighting it.
