The Process is a series of steps designed for you to find freedom from negative thoughts and emotions that lead to bad decisions and ultimately to a life of suffering.
The way that it is designed, whenever negative emotion arises, put it through the process. We do this by reading one or more of the selected passages of Scripture within each step until we are free of the intruding nature and filled with the spirit.
