One day, I was walking down the street with my then eight-year-old daughter and I remember her boiling with rage. She had had an argument with her older brother and was very upset. In the past, I would never have thought to ask her where she felt this anger in her body. Now I was interested. She shouted, ‘All over my body!’ and burst into bitter tears. The anger then immediately evaporated and then we talked about how it is sometimes good to cry in order to process difficult things. Her sunny smile returned and we talked about where in the body we felt which emotions. It was a wonderful moment with her.
