    • For most of us, our natural, reflexive reaction is to try to move away from pain. But avoidance will not serve us; it only brings us more anguish in the long run. The response that will serve us best is to feel. As author John Green (2012) wisely put it, pain demands to be felt.

    • Our first reaction to pain or discomfort is to try and fix it. It feels too warm so I crank up the A/C; I have a headache so I take acetaminophen. Sometimes, we can open to the pain/discomfort and learn.
