he would purposefully connect to any lingering anxiety from the prior procedure, then release it on the exhale. In addition to this upgraded ability to let go of stress, you may also notice a subtle improvement in mood—an increased sense of connection to and engagement with colleagues, family, friends, and teammates; more comfort with emotional vulnerability; and an overall enhanced sense of calm. You may find it initially feels a bit strange to access an emotion and then let go of it so quickly. But with time and practice, this process will become easier and easier until it becomes second nature. Remember that persistent practice is the only way to build this skill. You must actually train the heart muscle to let go, just as you would train the muscles in your arm to perform a tennis serve. Through regular practice and repetition, your heart will learn to let go with greater potency and speed. It will feel softer, more open, and free.

Loneliness takes its toll on us, and we do our best to look for opportunities to meet people. Being part of a group makes us feel properly human. We feel more relaxed when we know we belong. We feel more satisfied with life when we know we are wanted.
