Set and sat.
Sat and felt.
Felt my emotions for ten minutes.
Excruciating.
Why?

Depends on how you count lol. I got 7 years of therapy countless hours of focusing and journalling behind me. Like probably in the high thousands. I do *not* have a lot of direct emotional luminosity or emotional deconditioning work behind me.
