Questions we can ask ourselves to support the 3-4 transition:
· How did that situation impact my view of myself?
· How else might I look at this?
· Where are my “shoulds” coming from?
· Whose approval am I seeking here? Do I need positive feedback from others to confirm my assessment of myself?
· How am I taking that situation personally? Is there another way to understand it?
· How do I know what the next right thing to do is?
· How do my current roles define me? How do they limit me? Who am I beyond my roles?
· When I am torn between two courses of action, how do I decide?
· What aspects of my view of the world am I comfortable questioning? What questions make me uncomfortable?
· How do I know in my body? What do I do with that body knowledge?
Questions we can ask ourselves to support the 4-5 transition:
· How else might I look at this?
· What values am I holding tightly here? Is there another possible set of values or approaches to consider?
· How might I be wrong? Or what are all the ways I might be wrong?
· Is there a way that this good thing has a downside (or this bad thing has an upside)
· What meaning am I making from this? What could other possible meanings be?
· How do I connect with the wisdom of my body on a regular basis? How are my mind and body integrated?
· Can I imagine a way in which my current image or view or understanding of myself is like a a snakeskin to be shed?
· What are the limits of my meaning making system? How does the way I think constrain me?
· How can I seek very different ways of looking at this situation? Who else might have an entirely different perspective on this to offer me?
