I suck up good feelings of calm and positiveness like crazy to hold me over till the next session. I store them somewhere near my stomache.
I just told my therapist that it made me feel like I was greedily sucking him dry, but he said that once he puts the feelings out I'm welcome to gather and keep them.
It's always come naturally to me, the ability to do that. And it's not an unmixed blessing because I also suck up and keep negative vibrations.
But maybe it could be a learned ability too? With visualization perhaps, both during session of gathering the feelings, and between sessions of accessing them.
