Integration & Becoming concerns our capacity to change without losing continuity with ourselves. Human lives contain endings, injuries, discoveries and transitions that cannot simply be reversed. We grieve. We repair. We reorganize.
Healing is the capacity for repair, reconnection and adaptive recovery after injury, rupture or prolonged strain.
Transformation is the capacity to reorganize identity, meaning or behavior when an existing configuration can no longer adequately hold reality.
Gratitude is the capacity to recognize benefit, beauty, contribution and support without requiring life to be uncomplicated first.
The capacities do not operate in isolation. These relationship entries describe important feedback loops, tensions and forms of mutual support between them.
