Boyle details the physics of emotional vibrations, explaining how heavy states like guilt and shame possess slow frequencies that stick to the nervous system unless actively processed. She critiques traditional therapy models for potentially re-traumatizing patients by focusing on narrative repetition rather than energetic clearing. The discussion outlines the specific steps of the CLEANSE acronym—Clear Reactivity, Look Inward, Act, Nurture, Surrender, and Ease—while distinguishing between superficial affirmations and the deep vibrational work of mantras.
