Frequently Asked Questions
Is it okay to just "stay" with this feeling of everything dissolving?
Yes. This is "Staying With the Dissolving." It is a vital part of the Integrative Process. When you "accompany" the dissolution without trying to stop it, you signal to your Threat system that the change is safe. You are the "container" for the dissolving. By staying present, you ensure that nothing essential is lost, even as the "non-essential" structures fade away.
How long does the "dissolving" last?
As long as it needs to. In the model, we don't "force" the timeline. Dissolution is a Settlement Phase. When the old structures have fully cleared, the dissolving will naturally stop, and you will find yourself in a state of Habitation. Your only job is to remain a "Neutral Witness" until the system signals that the clearing is complete.
