Right.
So now if we take that and this time, if you just hold your hand out and it's the same stuff you don't want to have, same uncomfortable stuff, but I'm just going to hold it there for you.
You're just going to just carry it with you.
So if now we said, okay, end of the session, you go about the rest of your day, but you just keep that with you.
That would feel fundamentally different, right?
So you would be more able to engage in conversation, do your work, your arm's going to be less tired.
And you still get to choose to look down.
It's still there, but you get to choose when you consider it and when you think about it and when you work on it.
But you're also free to do all the other stuff, whereas it's not waiting to hit you in the face as soon as you let your guard down.
So it's that kind of difference of if you're not pushing stuff away, if you're willing to hold it, it doesn't fight against you so much.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, or go for a walk, that kind of thing.
Sometimes that can help if the intimacy side of it is tricky or kind of overwhelming, that can be really helpful.
But also it's really helpful to go into it knowing what your goal is.
And by that, I mean, often disruptions in relationships, they give you the sense that you want to win.
You just want them to understand your point of view and then it will all be all right.
And they feel exactly the same way.
And so if the aim is to win, the relationship loses because the only person that feels good in victory and looks good in victory or feels that they look good in victory is you.
So if you win the argument, you feel fantastic.
And actually the person you're trying to have a relationship with feels crushed.
