Quotes to ponder:

"Names provide definition, meaning and most importantly a calm connection."

"Creating a name and relationship with the parts of you that are stressed out does not increase the worry. In fact, it calms anxiety and empowers you to be helpful."

"This is the beginning of your journey together with your worry, anxiety and stress. Remember that no part of you is trying to hurt you."
