    Even if there are alternative realities, why not focus on the physical one? There’s so much to do on this one! Mastering your career, relationships, finances... 

    If you’re on psychedelics, for example, you can experience things like that, and gain many insights. But you must integrate them into your life. Otherwise, what’s the point?

    That's harsh... Verbal abuse can be even worse than physical one. 

    One thing that comes to mind is experimenting with psychedelics, especially ayahuasca. I have seen many people heal traumas in ceremonies. It's not easy, but it pays off. 

    There are more traditional alternatives to that, such as psychotherapy. You can also use art to express yourself. 

    You can also work on getting in touch with your inner child. There's a beautiful Hawaiian prayer called Ho'oponopono, which can really help release emotional pain. 

    See if this resonates with you:

    “You cannot stay on the summit forever. You have to come down again…
    One climbs and one sees: one descends and one sees no longer, but one has seen. There is an art of conducting oneself…
    by the memory of what one saw higher up. When one no longer sees, one can at least still know.”

    So what should you do with them?

    It’s tricky. Some emotions are too hard to bear. Medication might be needed. A professional psychologist will give much better advice than I can. 

    If a person chooses to deal with them through meditation, an experienced teacher is pivotal to succeed.

    thanks! It's something I'm trying to get on top of so I can pursue whatever things I'm doing with a bit more certainty. I know what you mean by just trying to hide with spirituality as if you can just meditate your problems away because you'll be 'woke' if you do it enough. I've had to work hard not to fall into that trap. 

    Cool, man. It looks like you’re on the right track ;)
