Every practice in the library, in one list. Narrow it by how long you have, who it is written for, and where you are right now.
Take the thought that is upsetting you and ask: what is another way to read this?
The event is fixed; the meaning is not. A second reading often fits the facts and hurts less.
Notice when you have jumped to the worst story, and hold it as a guess, not a fact.
They meant to hurt me, this always happens. Label these as theories, then look for evidence.
Name one hard thing today and ask what it might be growing in you: patience, humility, nearness to God.
Not denying the difficulty. Finding the meaning inside it that makes it bearable.
There is more about low mood and hard feelings than the practices: the low mood and hard feelings area has the themes and the courses too.
