Principlev1
Match vulnerable reflections to appropriate containers —
Match vulnerable reflections to appropriate containers — share with trusted partners who have psychological safety, relevant context, no competing interests, and proven trustworthiness.
Why This Is a Principle
This derives from Cognitive Defusion: Thoughts Are Objects (thoughts as separable objects), Externalization Exposes Hidden Structure (externalization exposes gaps), and Psychological safety—the perception that interpersonal risks (psychological safety as precondition for learning). It prescribes specific criteria for selecting sharing partners based on the axiom that vulnerable sharing requires safe containers. It is general enough to apply across many relationship contexts but specific enough to guide action.
