Frequently Asked Questions

Why do I feel like my life is broken into disconnected pieces?

Modern life, with its infinite triggers and open loops, causes "Identity Fragmentation." You feel like a different person in every "loop." Introducing the idea of "The Thread That Hasn’t Broken" helps the Narrative system weave these pieces back together. There is a single stream of consciousness that has experienced everything; by naming that thread, you restore a sense of unbroken history and structural stability.

How do I find the "thread" when I feel so scattered?

Don't look for it in your "story" or your "achievements." Look for it in your Presence. The "you" that is breathing right now is the same "you" that breathed ten years ago. This physical continuity is the bedrock of identity. By anchoring in the body, you bypass the "fragmented narrative" and return to the lived reality of being a single, continuous organism.
