Craving Connection? You're not alone.
Hey lovely,
Craving connection? You're not alone. Belonging is one of our basic human needs. Without it, most of us do not thrive, let alone survive. In 1948, psychologist Abraham Maslow came up with a hierarchy of needs theory.
It states that we must have our primal and basic needs met before we can satisfy our higher social, intellectual, and spiritual needs.
If we try to thrive intellectually and socially, for example in school, we can end up with longer-term psychological problems such as anxiety, depression and chronic illness.
As children, if we have not had our basic needs met, we tend to feel unsafe. Our nervous system gets stuck on high alert, and we may never feel completely comfortable in our skin, and be driven by our primal need to survive. We may accept unhealthy relationships, workplaces, and bad behaviour to get these needs met.
In this age of evolution, we are educated on a variety of topics at school that stimulate our intellect.
When our nervous system is out of whack, we can become stuck in our intellectual heads, trying to think our way out of a problem, that needs more than thought alone.
If we don't feel a strong sense of belonging in our homes, schools, or workplace, it may fire up our parasympathetic nervous system. Our primal fear response, resulting in chronic stress, inflammation, anxiety or depression.
We are trained to trust others, the hierarchy, and ignore our internal guidance system.
Feeling reliant and dependent on others to get our belonging needs met. We may become so conditioned that we can't imagine a different way of living.
Like Cinderella, we are the victim in our story, relying on a fairy godmother, a doctor, or a handsome prince, our partners, to save us. Our body is ancient, we have wisdom inside, in our DNA, our ancestry, in our collective unconscious, our energy field, in our brain, our biochemistry,
You have an internal guidance system, it is your evolutionary birthright to claim this power. It is time to relearn how to be human.
