As I finish writing my next book, I’ve done an incredible amount of research on the brain. And the takeaway is: your brain is very primal. It only wants to keep you alive.

One thing we need to find is meaningful hobbies and goals. Hobbies that bring us joy and presence in our body. Goals that drive us toward something— that keep us practicing and trying and testing out resilience.

These things give the brain rest from scanning for threats. They give the brain challenge, and (healthy) stimulation, and they help the brain consistently create new neural pathways.

Help your brain stay stimulated, evolving, and fulfilled.

Leave some hobbies that take you out of your head or goals you’re working on in the comments

All emotional and spiritual healing comes through relationship. This truth can be an obstacle to healing because the very thing that heals us (relationship) is the thing that previously wounded us. This paradox can lead us to defend against taking ownership of pain. We fear that our hearts will be wounded again. We escape pain by defending against the possibility of its recurrence.

Living in the defensiveness neglects the heart - hurt is emotional and spiritual internal bleeding that needs an emotional and spiritual solution. Defensiveness minimizes and denies the truth and seriousness of the pain of hurt.
