Although it sounds simple...its not...but with practice it is possible to let distracting emotions arise and then let them pass without holding on to them. I like to look at where my distracting emotions arise from. Sometimes they come from a place of insecurity, fear, doubt, resentment and so on. It helps me to identify where distracting emotions come from. That way I can concentrate on calming them at their source and not be distracted by tip of the iceberg emotions so to speak.
