Disappointing Someone
Best for: saying no without taking it back
Some of us learned early that being good meant never letting anyone down. This guided practice walks you into a real moment of disappointing someone, recent, coming, or still half-decided, and teaches the body to stay where it is while their face changes. Through imagery, breath, and slow noticing, we separate two sentences your mind keeps merging: I am the kind of person who hurts them, and I am the person who said no, and let them be sad about it. Only the second one was ever true.
