Emotional detachment enables you to protect your mind and feelings from stressful people and stressful situations and not to take things personally.
Another significant benefit is the ability to let go of the past, painful memories, and anger.
With emotional detachment, you put boundaries between you and difficult, unpleasant, or demanding people, and this helps you enjoy calmness and inner peace when you are in their company.
