Depression is a common diagnosis, but what if symptoms often linked with depression could be understood in an entirely different—and more constructive—way? By reconnecting with our deepest emotions, we no longer need to hide behind our defenses and can begin to live open-heartedly.
Key insights
- 1 The best way to experience healing is to make the implicit explicit, and the explicit experiential.
- 2 Too many people expend all their energy maintaining defenses against their own intense emotions.
- 3 Emotions are neither good nor bad; they simply are.
- 4 We’re all at least a little traumatized.
- 5 The reward for revisiting former selves with compassion and acceptance is a rewired brain and open-heartedness.
