Emotional support is crucial to caring for our loved ones, especially during challenging times.

It can be expressed verbally or through actions such as giving a hug. Offering genuine emotional support requires empathy, compassion, and understanding. Drawing from Buddhist teachings, we can cultivate a deeper understanding of emotions and apply mindfulness practices to support others genuinely. 

Buddhism sees emotions as transient states of mind. Instead of suppressing or indulging in emotions, we aim to observe them with mindfulness and non-attachment. This allows us to approach emotional support with clarity and equanimity, knowing that all emotions are impermanent. https://www.thekchencholing.org/blog/blogs-14/post/how-to-provide-emotional-support-101
