Somatic exercise is great for someone who’s body has forgotten how to actually relax the muscles to remind the body how to relax but I’m wondering what the equivalent technique is for the mind to remind the mind itself not to feel a certain way?

Reminding yourself not to feel a certain way sounds wrong to me. You’re just masking something at that point. Your feelings are telling you something. That needs to be addressed, not suppressed.
