Show Notes
It has been encouraged and accepted as "natural" over lifetimes that we human beings are in competition with each other, or are being compared with others to make a judgment as to whether we are "successful" or "worthy". We have all been indoctrinated to some extent by our parents, school, media, society, workplaces etc.
This has set up a polarity of good/bad and right/wrong...... which makes someone right and someone wrong. As a result, separation occurs - within ourself, in relationships, workplaces, in all aspects of life. It stops us from being ALL of the magic that we are. And we can make a choice in every moment to be that.
Trauma in childhood can cause us to not feel safe, secure and supported, so we are unable to have the tough conversations that are so important in creating meaningful relationships....... Dr Gabor Mate believes that all human beings have experienced trauma to some degree.
A base need we have as human beings, is connection - and we all need it to thrive.
So how do we connect from a place where we feel safe, secure and supported to be the magic we are?
