Change your perception, and your reality changes

Our perceptions trigger physical responses in our chemistry: immune response, hormonal balance, and so on. With each response, Neuropathways are used or newly created. As responses become habituated, the Neuropathways become Neurohighways, eventually leading to changes in the structure and make-up of our bodies.

We may pre-dispose through ancestral DNA coding, conditioning, or our environment.
We may have felt unloved, unseen, and unappreciated in our development. These unresolved emotional imprints can play out in adulthood, they can lead to unconscious identification with their inner child’s original wounding, and behave accordingly.

While most of the body/mind’s activity occurs at the autonomic, unconscious level, our conscious mind can play a deliberate part.

We have the possibility, through neuroplasticity, to respond in creative ways and overcome limiting survival responses governed by the most ancient part of the brain. Conscious choices are processed in the frontal Neuro-cortex. As we allow new neuropathways to form, we can neutralize past imprinting, take a new perspective, and feel differently about it. This changes our reality.

That is why it is imperative to do the internal work so our wounds no longer define our actions. Instead, they can serve as doorways to wisdom and evolution.

It can be likened to Kintsugi, the Japanese art of repairing broken pottery by mending the areas of breakage with lacquer dusted or mixed with powdered gold. As a philosophy, it treats the history of an object as beautiful rather than something to disguise.

As we open up to our potential and embody it, the neuropathways in our brain become highways to ease and abundance, supporting us in living a life of greater freedom, abundance, and ease.
