On the Dhamma Hub Discord it happens again and again that people join who had quite a number of negative experiences with practice.
In a sense, they go too far in one direction without noticing it and often hold a view that true practice is full of hardship, difficulty and ``must feel bad''.
While the practice DOES require lots of effort, that does not mean that it must FEEL difficult or joyless.
In this video, we discuss how to overcome such negative states of mind connected with the practice and how to set a more positive feedback loop in motion.
There is no practice without relief and relief-born joy.
Restraining and giving up is a joyful process as craving is oppressive.
Start small and work your way up.
Generalize until you arrive at the most fundamental value/craving.
Experiencing relief/joy gives rise to confidence.
Based on confidence, you can give up even more and start a positive feedback loop.
