Find love for it.
See it’s here to protect me. It comes from deep caring. It comes from love.

Then, inquire into both sides of the polarity. Can I find threats? Needs? Commands? Is it findable, the weakness or strength, or whatever it is?
When I do this, what’s left is a more natural strength, courage, love, or moving forward. One that includes both ends of the polarity, and is not opposed to either.
There is more freedom around the whole topic, and the polarity.
