How do you recognize that your brain is always triggered and ready to protect you?
After going through a lot of trauma or stress, our limbic system crashes down and goes into a state of constant triggering in which even the simplest of situations can cause an emotional avalanche to protect oneself. Today’s episode of The Beauty of Conflict is about breaking that behavior, habit, or pattern. CrisMarie shares how she’s been doing this through a Dynamic Neural Retraining System (DNRS) and explains how these habits are created, stored and repeated in our brains. Together, they also go on to examples of how they are creating new neural pathways through the repetition of activities. Finally, Susan also touches upon the transactional versus transformational relationships and their link to habits.
We hope this episode is helpful and valuable to you in being aware of your habits and how they affect your life and relationships.
