Frequently Asked Questions
I see the load I’m carrying, but I can’t put it down right now. Does just seeing it help at all?
Yes, seeing the load is a vital "Completion of Phase." In the Meaning Density Model™, "Recognition" does not require "Release." By simply acknowledging, "This is what I am carrying," you close the Narrative loop of "What is wrong with me?" You move from being "confused by the weight" to being "aware of the weight." This awareness provides a structural boundary between your Identity and the load, making the carrying feel more "technical" and less "personal."
Why is "seeing the load" enough to finish a phase?
Because it restores "Narrative Integrity." The most exhausting part of overload is often the "second-guessing"—the feeling that you should be doing more or that the weight isn't real. When you look at the load plainly and say, "This is heavy, and I am holding it," you end the internal conflict. This "Truth-Landing" settles the Threat & Safety system. You are still carrying the weight, but you are no longer carrying the doubt about the weight, which is a massive reduction in total density.
