When a child's emotional needs are not met, they may develop unconscious beliefs such as 'If I am smarter', 'If I am thinner', or 'If I am more helpful', then my internal world and emotions will be seen and acknowledged. If starving themselves does not get those needs met, they may start to feel shame and believe that they are unworthy or invisible. These core beliefs can be so strong that even as adults, they may not be able to accept love and acceptance from those around them. Identifying these hidden beliefs is the first step to healing the child inside of you 💜

Often times we don't realize that the untold story inside of us leads to our current suffering. Our trauma must be witnessed in the safety and attunement of an emotionally intelligent and present human to be able to heal 💜.

Our brains come equipped with circuits that trigger emotional responses like playfulness, fear, anger, lust, etc. However, the shame circuit is not innate and instead develops through socialization. When we feel shame, it often leads us to believe that we are bad or that there's something wrong with us. It's important to recognize that shame is not a part of our inherent circuitry, and we can unlearn it over time. Understanding how this false narrative was developed is the first step toward healing.

It takes courage and effort to unlearn the patterns of shame, but always remember that you are worth it!

Nourishing our bodies is intricately connected to our emotions. Our mind and body connection can be strong or poor depending on our lived experiences.
Experiencing trauma or stressful events can lead to a disconnection between our mind and body, making it challenging for our system to effectively communicate emotions and eating cues.
Through healing, we can learn that our body is a safe place to live again. This allows the Mind-Body- Connection to grow, giving us the ability to think, feel, and eat at the same time.
