Loved "With the acknowledgment and acceptance of the facts also comes a degree of freedom from them." Just the "knowing" creates a distance, an objectivity which makes it easier for me to respond than to react 2 practices I find helpful are 1. When I'm feeling hurt, angry, or whatever, I try and name the feeling precisely, not just "I'm feeling meh/icky/sad" but rather "I'm feeling hungry or physically tired, rushed, overstimulated" that helps me get to root of what my unmet need is 2. Move away from "i am x" to "i am feeling x". Makes it easier to complete the why. Eg rather than I'm tired. I'll say I am feeling tired. Then I'll say "I'm feeling tired because...so what I need to do is ..." Helps me become more conscious or aware, and just with that comes empowerment and agency
