James Baldwin believed that a human being could only be saved by another human being; he said, "I am aware that we do not save each other very often. But I am also aware that we save each other some of the time."  He described a space where we can land, a place that feels haunted by our aloneness in the world, where we have an irrepressible impulse to reach out for love. He then offers hope with the idea of what he called "a miracle of coherence and release." The reader is told that they can focus their unsteady attention on this miracle of love.  A love strong enough to guide us towards acceptance of our own identity.  (Nothing Personal by Baldwin & Avedon)

Carl Rogers said, "Self-worth is the calm recognition that your life matters, even when no one is applauding." This quote offers a glimpse into being worth-conscious when self-worth is its own reward; it also highlights a distinction between worth and esteem. Self-worth is a foundational value; self-esteem is about liking aspects of yourself or appreciating how good something feels (such as applause).

Dr. Glenn P. Doyle shared that "Validation" isn't feel-good pop psychology bullsh*t. Complex trauma damages the nervous system through invalidation of personal needs and humanity. Validation (worth-affirming in WCT) in psychotherapy isn't a warm and fuzzy bonus; it is central to stabilizing and healing our nervous system. @DrDoyleSays

The article in the link discusses a technique that helps autistic children develop their inner self-talk, which may enhance their ability to regulate emotions.  Therapists are encouraged to preserve the child's self-worth throughout the intervention. https://www.psypost.org/this-self-talk-exercise-may-help-reduce-emotional-dysregulation-in-autistic-children/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=facebook&fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAR5MIjxP7u6sCubVoKUJVa6cWuRTaK1L14iSn5n4YdCaVXljzM4JGTX1y5K-JQ_aem_DVt0q95w2tVmpA7cfKPLGg&sfnsn=mo

Information is just data that may not help inform conscious decision-making. In this interview, Anne-Laure Le Cunff discusses a life hack she discovered as a neuroscientist that can help us find the sweetspot between curiosity and ambition. Being conscious is preferred over being on autopilot.   https://bigthink.com/series/full-interview/anne-laure-le-cunff/
