So you can begin to train yourself

in knowing what you’re doing when you’re doing it—and in being kind to yourself about your speech and actions. You rejoice when you’re able to acknowledge that you’re caught in an old pattern and when you catch yourself before you speak or act out.

We all carry around trunk loads of old habits, but very fortunately for us, they’re removable. They don’t have to weigh us down permanently.

*Refraining is very powerful because it gives us an opportunity to acknowledge when we’re caught and then to get unstuck.*
