This is also why we come up with kooky ideas like artificial wombs

The more time you spend in a world of concepts, the less you remain connected with your body, your primary gateway to physical reality

As a result, the concept gains power over reality (with negative concepts, we call this trauma)

Why do humans get stuck in Trauma while wild animals recover naturally?  

In the 1970s, Dr. Peter Levine noticed something remarkable:  

Wild animals face death daily yet don’t develop PTSD, Depression, or Anxiety.  

His discovery revolutionized how we understand trauma https://t.co/3LuOUxSTiL

IMHO one of the major ills of society today is that we are so far disconnected from nature.

We don’t know where the food/water we consume comes from.  We don’t intrinsically understand how our actions relate to our well-being.  We’ve actually been conditioned against it.

The hopeful fact is that all of this is in our hands.  Each of us can choose to reforge this connection with the natural world.  It’s not easy in today’s society, but it IS possible.
