It helps with some repeated patterns that we see in our life that are mistakes which we haven't learned from and keep repeating in our life. Some bad love relationships or toxic friendships might be in our lives because we keep on making the same mistake and repeating certain patterns. solving the root problem inside ourselves helps us to identify the original reason why feel that way, we take a certain decision or we act in a specific way.

An example might be a sexist love relationship. A woman may go through many sexist relationships and this may hurt her but she keeps on dating this kind of men. So she has to get to the root of this problem. The root problem might be that she lacks in confidence to stop the abusing behavior of men or she accepts gender roles without questioning its origins. Maybe her family raised her to be extremely dependent and obedient so her personality was shaped in a way that she can´t raise her voice against the patriarchal society and stop dating man with sexist profiles or beliefs.
