To understand why a man said something, add “…and what do you think of me now that I said this?” to the end of his sentence.

To understand why a woman said something add, “…and how close are we now that I’ve said that?” to the end of her sentence.

Not perfect obviously, but shockingly effective. (h/t Roy H. Williams)

The way to move past an emotion is to first allow yourself to fully feel it.

Only then can you let it go.

Simple to understand. But hard to do.

Much of our mind, and most of our culture, is designed to distract from feeling of emotions (h/t Alice Miller)
