Dynamic Healing with David Hanscom MD and Les Aria PhD
Health & Fitness:Medicine
Our unconscious brain’s primary function is to protect us. Unfortunately for humans, it is manifested in ongoing self-critical voices. To access our inherent capacity to love, these voices must be de-energized, which requires specific approaches.
We have discussed that love = awareness, which means being fully engaged in the present moment. Any time you are anxious or angry, something in the present reminded you of some situation from the past that was dangerous or perceived as such. In other words, the past is playing out in the present and by definition you are not aware. Love and anger cannot co-exist in a given moment.
In this podcast we will discuss the necessity of “de-energizing” your automatic survival reactions of anxiety and anger before awareness/ love can emerge. Not only does threat physiology block it, but the blood supply to your brain also shifts from your thinking centers down to your survival midbrain, and you can’t think clearly. Learn the skills of creating safety, connecting to awareness and love, and watch your creativity come to life. Love does heal but accessing it is a learned skill.
