Don’t act on jealousy. When you recognize it, pause, and just sit and watch it. Don’t let jealousy rule your actions. Take some time away from the action if needed. When you act in jealousy, it hurts others. It hurts you. Learn to see the suffering you’re causing, in others and in yourself. This suffering is entirely caused by acting out of fear. Instead, act compassionately by letting the fear go in order to relieve your suffering. Jealousy isn’t something you can just get rid of immediately, like an old coat you don’t want anymore. It’s a wound that needs healing, a hurt that needs compassion. Moving beyond jealousy is a set of skills you need to learn with practice, and a trust that needs to be earned with time.
