Yeah, 100%. We have to be with it all. My struggle is generally with big waves of fear. Happened yesterday. I spent the first part of the day trying to push it away (no success). Then I finally gave in to tending to it, tending to myself as I would a stressed child and just being with it. It then passed and I was left with a small insight. I've learned so much from Tara Brach's teachings.

This really hit me. To eliminate the heaviness would necessitate eliminating the joy and light, and I never, ever want to let that go.
