Perfect summary of the entire concept and model and the importance of acceptance compassion and love versus hiding your shadow in the closet. We're trying to surgically remove it. Thank you Ralph you are Freaking Awesome- your work has facilitated and helped me do so much of my own work and processing in a profound and transformative way. I am truly grateful ❣️

Awesome talk! Kindness to ones self during a trigger is sooo difficult to focus on. In combination with breathe work, it can change the bodies vibration of terror shock, and gradually sooth with love.
Thank you so much for sharing.

I really enjoyed this discussion. Thank you to both of you, Eric and Ralph. 🙏🙏🙏
I’m definitely going to read the book.
