Not every anxious reaction lives at the same depth.

The map begins with a feeling. Automatic thoughts can arrive with it. Beneath those may be an intermediary belief, such as “If I am rejected, it means I am unattractive.” At the core-belief level lies Source Code, the deeper learned structure that makes certain thoughts and feelings familiar. The fifth level, trauma or the Primary Sentence, is part of the Feel Different™ map. The purpose of the map is to recognise what is actually active instead of forcing every reaction into the same explanation.

A newly noticed prediction can sometimes be questioned or held more lightly. A repeated, identity-level conclusion may not move because you argue with it. The Meta-decision is the choice to recognise what level is active and to choose a response that fits, rather than forcing the same tool onto every experience.
