Turning your awareness towards something helps dissolve its grip on your awareness.

I think what you are doing is heading into the right direction. Avoid also falling into the trap that your mind tells you stories about what is going on. That shifts awareness away from it. Not the stories are important, nor the thoughts. What you can feel, what you can perceive, the underlying energies, that's important.

It can take its time, but like any skill it will also improve with use. Also, the cleaner your system gets, the better your ability to release will be and what you can let go of.

Take good care,

I completely agree. You do not avoid. But staying in the razor's edge of NOW, does not necessarily mean avoidance.
