We can orient ourselves to what is hap- pening in the present moment, focus on our breath and ground ourselves – ask ourselves: “Where did these thoughts or feelings come from? Who do they belong to? Why are they familiar (or as John Bradshaw spells it – family-ar).” If possible, we process our thoughts, feelings with a safe person, group or therapist. We could journal our thoughts and feelings or use other creative methods to bring the thoughts and feelings to the surface – drawing, movement, singing, paint- ing, meditation, etc. We can begin by seeing “Life as a Mirror,” anything happening in the outer environment is also happening to and within me. Refl ecting honestly with forgive- ness and compassion can begin to integrate the disowned self.
