Rather than feeling guilty about having negative thoughts or feelings, we learn that negative emotions are perfectly natural. When we are able to accept the negative parts of our consciousness, we are more free to start moving away from them and towards a more positive direction.Additional Resources:Sharp HealthCare CAREforYou: CAREforYou Program (sharp.com)Sharp HealthCare EAP: Employee Assistance Program (sharp.com)
