Resentments: Identifying Underlying Emotion
In this Wisdom Wednesday question offered by a listener, Alisha shares a personal experience, aligned with a fairy tale, about resentments within her life.
Alisha points out that we are often unaware of an underlying emotion. And that what we need to do is to go deeper within to identify the pain. To help remove the angry or hateful feelings often associated with resentment, Alisha describes the steps one can take to help replace resentments with self love, understanding and ultimately letting go.
