> So whenever I feel these upset feelings I'm trying to pay attention to them in a welcoming, compassionate way.

I can't do those exercises. I literally can't. I feel so stupid I freeze. Inhibited? Me? :)

What I can do is give all of me a voice and a chance to speak. I can try to listen respectfully and compassionately.

It isn't a small thing to do. It's sometimes a very hard thing to do. Some of the things I say to myself at those times are darn hard to take seriously, to not be dismissive. The best gift I can give to myself is to do that.
