You become the part or emotion rather than noticing it. 🔷 Unblending - Creating space between your Self and a protective part so you can lead from Self-energy instead of from fear or panic. ____________________________ Community Guidelines: Welcome to our community! 👋 This space is all about fostering healthy boundaries and relationships.
