Not-Self and Practical Advice
Through the Not-Self, a person may either care excessively (to burnout) or establish overly rigid rules that stifle those around them.
- Nurture according to sacral response — not everyone needs your care
- Don't forget yourself — you can't nurture if you burn out
- Check your values — do they still serve the community
- Allow others to grow — excessive care harms development
