yourself splitting into two selves during conflict, one to experience yourself and the other to observe yourself. You can experience your urge to fight and observe it and wonder if your boxing gloves are helpful. You may feel the urge to get defensive or lash out, but realizing this won’t solve the issue, you choose an approach that will. You can’t neglect the urge either, though, because it contains a message—that there is something inside you that you need to protect. You acknowledge the anger in the cockpit, respond to it over the intercom, while your highest self pilots the plane.
