How to work with agitation

When we try to settle, what we might notice is unsettledness.

Rather than go into the topic, recognize the energy.

Give attention to places in the body that are non-agitated.

Use the body and breath to change the speed of the mind, to steady it.

Once settled, then dilemmas and unfinished business can be related to, with dispassion, compassion and detachment.
