I believe that one of the reasons addiction (social media, video games, drugs, food) is so prevalent today is because of our inability to sit with and tolerate pain. Tolerance is built when we allow ourselves to sit with the “sting” of pain and ride the wave. This is done with compassion, empathy, and patience toward ourselves.
