The Idea of the Week
Why do we take things personally? In this 6-minute read, Verywellmind shares the factors that may prime us to take things more personally and signs to detect when we may be taking things too personally.
In this 43-minute episode, Christine and Regina discuss projection and situations where they noticed they were projecting or being projected onto (the discussion starts at 13:20). Detecting these situations is difficult, so Christine and Regina offer that engaging in inner work and reflection will help you distinguish what is bothering you and notice when you’re projecting.
Remember that this is a process and will take practice.
