We go into meditation with expectations, which are the most noxious thing you can bring to the party. So, in an individual sitting or walking meditation, in an individual session of meditation, the goal is not to feel any certain way. In fact, going into it, if you're expecting or hoping to feel a certain way, it pretty much blocks you from getting there. The goal, instead, is to feel whatever you are feeling clearly so that you build the muscle of not being owned by your
feelings.
