Synthetic Authority - Friction Loss - File 5/10

You have felt the contrast. Now explore what it is like to stop arguing with every instruction. Friction Loss makes chosen surrender the focus of the session.

Processing Delay introduced the difference between self-direction and following the voice. Friction Loss stays with the hesitation between them: the extra debate, the effort of resisting, and the possibility of letting that effort settle. The mood is quiet relief rather than confrontation.
