That we all—every one of us—take ourselves seriously is not merely ridiculous.”

There is often a palpable softening as we gaze on a person inside who has value apart from the distressing symptom.
We also may sense more clearly that this experience isn't all of us, but belongs to a part who has had encounters that give this anxiety context and meaning.
The change of pronoun, granting personhood, may move us into a more right-centric way of perceiving, which also opens us to a more both/and perspective of broad acceptance, arouses our warm curiosity, expands receptivity to the present moment. It can really be a very profound change.”
