For thousands of years, if our caregivers rejected or abandoned us, we would die. There were no fire stations or social workers.
Our nervous systems became wired to need our parents' love to feel physically SAFE!
When we experience parents that frequently reject, criticize, or shame us, as a child, our nervous system takes this as a literal threat to our life!
When this happens enough, (as do most people who grow up with emotionally immature parents), the nervous system gets stuck in the past, still feeling like it is in physical danger.
In other words, IF YOU HAD TOXIC PARENTS, YOU ARE MOST LIKELY LIVING IN SURVIVAL MODE

In these 13 lessons in this course, you will learn how to...
