I really enjoy Carol Tuttle’s work and what she is doing over at dressingyourtruth.com for women. I have found the whole framework of seeing people in terms of different types of energy expressing through them, to be so helpful. I even use it at the beginning of the semester to help me understand my students.
Anyhow, in a recent series of youtube videos on her blog, Carol reviews how each of the four Types go through their “pity parties”. I think it’s worth posting them here. It might help you better understand how certain people in your life deal with stress and conflict.
