Stage four. Turn it into wisdom. Turn hard-won lessons into wisdom, and imagine what you'll build with it. This stage touches some harder memories. Go at your own pace, and pause whenever you like. If something feels heavy, reach out to someone you trust, or to a professional. You don't have to carry it alone.

Don't grieve. Anything you lose comes round in another form.
Rumi, tr. Coleman Barks
