"Falling in LOVE" after childhood trauma, abuse & healing through the ventral vagal state

This episode discusses the experience of bonding as an adult or "falling in love" and how it can trigger fight-flight-freeze mode (sympathetic nervous system) as an adult which is often rooted from childhood experiences with trauma, neglect, sexual abuse, violence and even lack of attention and admiration.  The onset of intimacy (into-me-see) (which is becoming vulnerable and showing someone the real you) after experiencing childhood abuse and trauma can trigger the sympathetic nervous system when emotional, or physical intimacy deepen in a relationship, we go into how to move and stay in the ventral vagal state (parasympathetic nervous system's state of rest & digest) which is the ideal state for genuine connection.

The SEED of God, God the FATHER & cultural IDENTITY crisis

Is God a woman or a man? Is this the right question? And why is there a push to put God into gender identity box..  VUP hostess Kristal explores answers to these questions, stressing that our own perception of who God is directly affects how we identify or perceive ourselves & what the Bible says about God being a father. Culturally our identity is becoming more confused as people and individuals (is in crisis) because we fail to know and perceive the reality of our Creator. Have any thoughts about this episode?
