Balancing the opposites reveals unity. What is the unity behind hot/cold? Behind sadness/happiness? Behind patience/impatience? Balancing opposites is to release emotional charges towards EITHER end of the spectrum. Thus, when bringing up opposites you should examine your mood, feelings and how your emotions and thoughts change when you encounter thoughts you like and thought you don't like.
One way to approach is that everything is connected. So say you're thinking of the opposites of patience/impatience. You would first look at where you have patience and what it relates to. Then you would bring up impatience in your mind and relate to it. You can then compare the two together. Did one give you more of a charge than the other? Did you find you have more or less positive/negative thought associated with it?
If you find you do have a strong charge one way or the other you can then address it and begin to break it down. Ask yourself why you feel that way. Ask yourself many questions, sometimes you'd be surprised at the answers we'll give ourselves.
