Neurons that fire together; wire together đź’ĄMeaning, when a circuit fires repeatedly, it can become a default setting.
If our relationships growing up were characterized by rejection, abandonment, neglect or fear, all the brain’s resources become dedicated to SAFETY! This means distancing, hyper independence, and protecting against vulnerability.
On the other hand, if you had inconsistent, parents, enmeshed family dynamics, parentification, narcissistic, emotionally immature parents or neglect, you learned that being a boundary-less, kept you more connected and safe her from emotional or physical harm.
đź©· Take a moment and see if you can find some gratitude for your younger self that protected you from pain.
While, this is such a resource in childhood, a brain and body that are managing fear and abandonment are a brain and body that struggle with healthy connection in adulthood.
Healing these patterns means healing our attachment wounds đź©·
