- “Emotional pain” - insults or insinuations of not being good enough: affirmation ~ “I am enough”, “I am vital”, “I have a subtle emotional energy” “Vitality, sustained by air enhanced by breath (pranayama)”, whereas taking care of the exhalation, expectorating CO2, takes care of the inhalation. Breath (pranayama) utilization specific guttural throat breaths (ujayi) affirming, “breath of victory” or “this too, shall pass” observing ever-present breaths (viyana) working through emotions benefitting pratyahara is powerful

Affirm, “I have intuitive, intelligent, intellect”, “Intellectuality, sustained by meta-analysis enhanced (aztanga) by attention (dharana) to details” benefitting meditation (dhyana) is wise
- “Existential pain” sometimes called a ‘dark night of the soul’ - not understanding (the reason for living): affirmation, “Free and responsible [civil (yama), polite (niyama), posture (asana), breath (pranayama), sensory-withdrawal/counterintuitive-relaxation/holding-tension (pratyahara), attention (dharana), meditation (dhyana), living-meditation/awareness/ecstasy (samadhi)] ways of understanding”, “Spirituality sustained by affirmations (mantras) & or prayer is enhanced (aztanga) by meditation (dhyana) without medication benefitting a living-meditation/awareness/ecstasy (samadhi) is happy
