floating emotions

I am finding that doing the practice has made me more aware of my emotions and I feel them more acutely than I have in a while. These range from frustration to joy that I am in Hanoi (so it's not all bad!) I'm going to go to Saigon and follow Thich Nhat Hanh around for a while in late February- my understanding husband has supported me in doing this. I'm reading "transformation at the base" now a very dense book about the fifty verses of the nature of consciousness. It's pretty complex but comforting to read especially when you're feeling sad.
