Mute
Your ability to stop responding, even when provoked. Not about listening, but choosing silence as a control.
Christina's Journey to Stop Explaining Herself
Mute reflects Christina's developing ability to stop responding to every expectation or demand for explanation from others. Her pattern of constantly explaining herself was like having Mute turned off — she felt compelled to respond to every perceived need for justification. Learning to stop explaining herself meant developing the capacity to choose silence and let others sit with their own reactions.
