It's a good approach because you're right if you meant that you don't always need to just "do" - sometimes it is better to just "be". Indeed some people struggle with this all their lives, constantly turning pain into action but never allowing themselves to just be with the pain and therefore letting it resolve itself.

Letting pain, reaction (instead of response), and unconsciousness be your reminder to be more present. Doing this has brought a lot of light into my life. Great message Seamus, missed your posts for a while. & the song is spot on. From one musician to another- awesome work dude. Another variation on this is transmuting pain into presence.
