​Stones Seven and Eight encourage us to feel our emotions and then to release any we deem harmful. A quote from Pema Chödrön sheds light on these two Stones: “The more we witness our emotional reactions and understand how they work, the easier it is to refrain.”[i] But we cannot witness these reactions unless we feel them. After that, we examine them to discover how they work, and this discovery sheds light on how to release them.
