"If one is estranged from oneself, then one is estranged from others too. If one is out of touch with oneself, then one cannot touch others." - Anne Morrow Lindbergh

We have many defenses that aid in keeping us safe, but sometimes what used to work now gets in our way. Becoming aware of this gives us a choice in our behaviors.
