The Child Within in Charge of Dissociation, the over-developed childhood mind.

Most of us who live in our hectic, high-stress culture will experience anxiety which can make it difficult to live out our lives in the most effective way.

It is important to understand how our child within gets “hijacked” , and bypasses our ability to tap into our rational brain to make good decisions. When an event or a remembered event happens that triggers an intense emotional response our child within becomes activated and starts the whole fight or flight response in our mind/body system. our body and mind gets caught up in various neuro-chemical processes that make it extremely difficult to think through the situation with a calm and logical approach. It can take anywhere from three to four hours for your mind/body system to begin to calm down after encounters with stress filled situations often triggering an unwelcome dissociated response.

 To have to wait a four hours or more depending on the chosen dissociation to reclaim your rational adult brain is not very convenient and is not terribly effective. 
The Ten Stages is a studied recovery course. It is a source of reconnection a method of unlearning and a reintroduction to our child within which leads us back to our one true intuitive voice.We start to learn and come out of our protective dysfunctional shell and reclaim our lives. #childwithin#10stages
