- jerf 8y agoI understand the emotion just fine. It is superficial frustration from wanting to be able to do something and not being able to. The solution is just to let go of it. Sleep and dreaming being what it is, I often do not remember that this is a problem until I wake up a bit more enough to remember "oh, yes, this is a problem". Many people certainly seem to dream about issues of great significance to them. I have before, but it is by far an exception and not the rule. My dreams give me a window into how I conceptualize the world and how I break things down and store them, but it's actually quite unusual for me to have anything that can be traced back to specific emotional experiences.
- ada1981 8y agoA useful technique, when you are clear on the emotion you are feeling, is to create some space with closed eyes to first feel the emotion in your body and then ask your body when the first time in your life was you felt such a feeling of frustration. You may be presented with an image or scene which you then can explore and integrate. I work with a variety of folks, including some of the top founders in the valley, and this type of subtle exploration is one of the most useful tools to unlock deeper levels of clarity, performance and wellbeing.
