We live in a vibrational-relational reality
Our relationships with others build up beliefs, ‘cellular memory’, and neural networks that can help our brains become their most ‘human’: adaptive, resilient, creative, brilliant.
When relationships are absent, neglectful or abusive, they can block us from accessing brain circuitry that makes us most human.
Because of their intimate nature, relationships offer us a chance to update our algorithms from our past.
Many of us lacked models of secure attachment growing up. Many of us saw a lot of self-abandonment as well. So it's up to us to turn to experts and positive examples in order to break the cycles passed down to us.
Due to how our nervous systems and brains are built and wired according, learning how to love, self-regulate and co-regulate in healthy ways can help each of us reach a new level of evolution.

Our ability to self-regulate is tied to our Ability to co-regulate with others
This means we are able to seek out closeness, intimacy and psychological safety with others.
Good relationships help us get out of the trance of our own thoughts and narratives.
Relationships open us up to other people’s experiences and perspectives, and also serves as a mirror for us to practice how to send signals using our voice, hands, face and body in ways that create feedback loops with others that are co-creative, restorative and safe.
These types of behaviors trigger oxytocinergic systems that help us achieve homeostasis through connection.
Social interactions also help us complexify our problem-solving and creative abilities by offering multiple unpredictable and unstable feedback loops that we must engage in moment-by-moment. This video provide ideas for how to get better at co-regulating.
Co-regulation plays a critical role in how we connect and harmonize with one another.
Learn about 2 different types of co-regulation and different practices we can use that can lead to profound changes in brain activity and promote a sense of transcendence and emotional resilience.
Relationships are the key to building our most powerful mind.
