We do that.

And then with some practice and with some support, it ultimately is that you now as this healthy adult comes into those memories and

to give you what you didn't have at that time.

And that's like, that's where we want to get ultimately.

A hundred percent.

Well, it depends what we're looking at in terms of working as well.

Like what does it mean for it to be working?

And like if it was me, I'd really validate, look, you know, I totally get this and I feel really strange and I think it's very understandable.

You'd have some scepticism.

I mean it's all, like for me at least, it's always around informed consent.

So if this is not something that you feel comfortable doing,

and it's for this particular reason, then of course, like we go with, you know, you need to have a sense of agency here about this.

But I'd always like bring like, okay, so can we hold a healthy skepticism?

So can we even bring some curiosity to this?

And so we validate that, yeah, like I get this sounds really wacky.

And if it's not right for you, like totally fine.

But could you be a little bit curious about,

And then there's this other section, this other section, there's this other thing at play that could be the part of you that is wanting to avoid feeling.

So we might get skepticism maybe on board, kind of comes about as a protection to feeling and getting exposed to the vulnerable child.

So it might sound like, nah, that's just not for me.
