🧿SELF CONNECTION CREATES SAFETY🧿
The human nervous system relies on connection for emotional regulation.
This is why being listened to, understood, or held by others can instantly bring calm.
What we often forget is that we can offer this same attunement to ourselves. 🙌
When you practice self-connection, you build an internal relationship of safety, that creates presence, calm, and consistency.
Historically, you most likely would’ve received this through your primary caregivers.
This is something you can create internally each time you meet your own emotions with curiosity and kindness.
🧡Self-connection is the practice of turning inward with presence, curiosity, and compassion.
It is self-attunement, the ability to be with your internal experience without abandoning, judging, or suppressing it. 🧘♂️
When you stay connected to yourself, you create safety within your nervous system.
You are telling your body, “You’re not alone. I’m here for you.”
And your body no longer needs to be in “fight, flight or freeze mode.”
It can finally relax, drop its guard and soften into safety and receivership. 🙏
