With all the protesting and video awareness of injustice, you are going to feel a flood of emotions. Just a few emotional band-aids to help you during these times.

-Tune out for a while from the news, social media, online chats.
-Let your intense emotions pass over you. Observe those emotions without interacting with them.
- Sit in silence, calmly, and deeply breathe.
-Actually, thank the emotions for coming to light. Being aware you'll know what you need to address.
-Focus on your forgiveness of yourself and many times you felt powerless to this abuse yourself (watching or receiving).
-Forgive the abusers because they don't deserve any more of your energy. This is essential for your own healing.
- Hug yourself and cry if able. Tears are like a deep emotional wash out.
-Take stock of your now - see, touch, taste, hear, feel. You need that confirmation...
