Approaching Vulnerability with Compassion
Engaging with our vulnerable emotions often resembles a rescue mission rather than a fix-it approach. Visualizing oneself as a rescuer finding a lost child in the woods serves as a powerful metaphor for how to treat these vulnerable parts of ourselves. Instead of pushing or shaming these emotions, one should approach them with kindness, curiosity, and patience, fostering trust before expecting engagement. This compassionate approach facilitates a healing dialogue with these lost parts, ultimately guiding them back to a place of safety and integration.
