Exile Witnessing
Being seen, not fixed
Once a protector allows access, the exile needs witnessing — being SEEN in what happened, not fixed. Witnessing is the medicine.
Exile part met
What it showed the adult self (image, feeling, story)
What the adult self reflects back
Witness, don't rescue
The urge to fix the exile can silence it again. Its first need is to be seen without interruption.
