“I feel X. I need to do Y.”
I feel Startled. I need to turn off my Fear System and use the 1st Ethic and use Self-Safety.
People think “Startled” is PTSD.
It is not.
This is a temporary state where your RAS is still scanning for danger. You need to self-soothe with Self-Safety. The mission is to turn off your RAS.
Try, “You are safe. You are calm. You are relaxed.”
Nature or a bath is highly effective for this.
