...‘live in a house of language,’ as the philosopher Martin Heidegger said that humans do.

Language brings forth the world that you live in. if you want to change, it’s profoundly useful to observe how you language yourself into being and in your relationships.

When you speak, you are literally joining two worlds.

Making such distinctions is not an insult; it’s an act of taking care of another in the search for mutual satisfaction.

... the profound relationship between language and the body’s physiology - a placebo changes expectation.
