Years ago, I wrote an article about how my little dog Buddha dug into my lap during fireworks season. She’d claw and scratch and burrow her way into me, running for her life from the loud booms all around.

Except, she obviously wasn’t running for her life. She had no idea that she was 100%, perfectly safe.

I talk with people every day who are exactly like Buddha. Fearing thoughts and feelings that are made up and can’t possibly hurt them.

They don’t know how safe they really are.

In this episode, I unpack how the very things that make our experience feel scary and dangerous are actually our clues that it absolutely safe.
