Limbic Imprinting effects us all and why it is SO important how we bring children into the world. Evil people designed a system of birth that traumatizes us all, and disconnects us from our humanity. It makes us easier to control.
Our early impressions stay with us for the rest of our lives. Thorough research has shown a direct correlation between the way we were born and the subconscious behavioral and emotional patterns in our adult lives. This is due to the mechanism called "limbic imprint".
We come into this world wide-open to receiving love. When we receive it, as our first experience, our nervous system is wired with an undeniable rightness of being. Being held in our mother’s arms and feeding from her breast provides us with a natural sense of bliss and security
If our first impressions of being in the body are anything less than loving (painful, frightening, lonely), then those impressions will imprint as our experience of love. It will be coded into our nervous system as a comfort zone, acting as a surrogate for love and nurturing
Traumatic birth strips us of our power and impairs our capacity to love, trust, be intimate and experience our true potential. Addictions, poor problem-solving skills, low self-esteem and an inability to be compassionate or responsible have all been linked to birth trauma.
Why do I advocate for happy, healthy birth for mamas and babies? Because the world is already so messed up, by design. The least we deserve is a kind and gentle welcome surrounded in love, as our first experiences.
