Let's deconstruct it.

And then let's reconstruct it.

You can't change the fact that the abuse happened, but you can change how you respond to it and how you want it to play out into your future.

So if you look at this tree,

And if you look deeply inside, and I'm holding up the green tree again, and some of the branches for the viewers, some of the branches are light green and some are dark green.

And they like that for a reason.

The dark green is how you want to be in the future.

You want to be free of that abuse.

You don't want to be depressed.

Depression will still come.

It's a normal part of life.

But you don't want it to be controlling you that you're depressed all the time.

When you have a bout of depression, you want to be able to recognize what it is and manage it.

So this person, let's take the scenario of the woman who's abused multiple abuse in a marriage situation.

The process looking at the abuse deconstructing and reconstructing over time, and this takes cycles of 63 days.

Eventually, you're going to build a new thought.

This thought will lose its energy.

This energy will be transferred from this toxic thought, this of all the abusive situations and all the memories surrounding that,

that energy will be transferred to the new tree.

Energy is never lost, it's only transferred.
