Where do you experience the emotion in the body? Most people try to stuff away the emotion in the hope it will goe away. This is likely to compound its intensity when it later returns. Soon enough, you have given in to the craving owing to a collapse in willpower. I must state, it is not your fault since you are following your biological drive to satisfy your urge. With increased awareness and practice, you will identify the feeling and sit with it instead of immediately respond to it.
The feelings you experience are a like taming a new puppy eager to gnaw at your slippers. However, by distracting it with a toy, you draw its awareness to something of equal pleasure and soon enough it has learned to stop chewing at your slippers. To be with the emotion means to experience it mindfully rather than defer or ignore it.
