Quotations:

"Start slow, just go soft, go slow, be gracious to yourself, and be compassionate to yourself."

"Be aware, like start paying attention. What's going on in my body right now? Do I feel some heat? Do I feel tightness? Do I feel that I'm clenching? Or do I feel some rapid heart rate?"

"Get curious. Why is this happening? What's the common denominator? Is there a person? Is there a smell? Is there an event? Is there a sensation? Is there some sort of circumstance that I saw this last time and I'm starting to see a pattern?"

"Start the inquiry. What do I need? What am I feeling? What might I be thinking about? What might I be remembering? Or what might I be afraid of?"
