Frequently Asked Questions

My "Past-Self" and "Future-Self" are arguing. How do I make them stop?

You "Let Different Selves Share Space." In the model, we don't try to "stop the argument"; we promote "Peaceful Coexistence." Imagine your "Past-Self" (with its trauma) and your "Future-Self" (with its anxiety) are just roommates in the "Room of Now." They don't have to agree. You, the Integrator, simply stay present. By "sharing space" without "choosing a winner," the argument naturally loses its "Meaning Density" and settles into the background.

What happens once my "selves" stop fighting?

You reach Structural Settlement. The energy you were using to "mediate" the fight is returned to you. You find yourself with a surplus of Creative Agency. You are no longer a "peacekeeper" in your own head; you are the Habitant of your own life. This is the "Done" signal of this series: you are here, you are many, and you are finally at peace.
