There’s a difference between witnessing who you are and identifying with who you are.
And so most of my day I’m witnessing Elle the person, Elle the personality, Elle the
he human being and it gives me so much more freedom internally because I don’t have
to be attached to things that happen outside of me or inside of me that aren’t necessarily
feelings or occurrences that are thought or happy, irritations, where exactly. If I’m
cold, I can be cold without being upset about it, whereas before I would have to do something
about it. Fix the temperature, want to leave the place. And so my physical impulses don’t
rule me anymore. I’m in a place of witnessing throughout the day.
