Automated reactions

When I judge something as good or bad, my ego puts a sticky label on it, saying 'good' or 'bad'.

This then forms the basis for automated reactions in the future to similar stimuli.

When I react to something, I cannot help that.

But I can go back and remove the sticky label, neutralising the situation retrospectively.

The sticky label keeps reappearing.

So I keep removing it.

Eventually it stays gone.

Historically I would have extremely violent automated reactions to certain triggers due to childhood events.

The above procedure, with considerable calm and persistent practice eliminated these altogether.
