Think of a situation that is currently challenging for you. Sit with it for a moment, and notice what comes up. Write out or contemplate your answers to the following questions and share with a partner (if you’re in a group) or reread them if you are alone: 

What are your thoughts about the situation? 

What are the feelings associated with it? 

What “stories” do you notice about the situation?

Do the “stories” you are telling yourself include any thoughts of blame? If so, please write some examples.

In what ways do you feel resentful toward anyone regarding this? 

What would it be like to view the “story” without blame and resentment?

Now, contemplate or write about the situation in a way that does not include any blame. See if you can find a way to tell the story from a “higher” vantage point. (For example, from the viewpoint of an impartial person, or from your higher power). Notice how you feel when you read the new story.
