Prenatal
Attachments Study Prove a Child’s Development with Mother Before Birth
A recent study in Sweden demonstrated that maternal prenatal
attachment during the third trimester of pregnancy is associated with the
postnatal maternal involvement and can serve as an important diagnostic aid in
identifying those women for whom the mother-child interaction is likely to be
suboptimal.
Attachment theory is one of my favorite topics these days. I
relate most of psychological issues with depression, anxiety and PTSD with what
happened as a child. As a result of this kind of study, I have limited the
amount of confusing reactions in my own life to a few. Even those few, with
insistent self-inquiry, I generally find an honest understanding of why and how
I react to certain external behaviors.
Just recently, I had one of my favorite friends write an
email that caught me off guard. I felt judged and demeaned by her. I know for
certain, after talking with her, that what she wrote was rather innocuous and
was just an honest reply to an email I sent her.
However, after much self-inquiry about why I had reacted
poorly to the email, I realized that much of my feelings weren’t about my
friend at all. My reaction was an attachment wound that happened frequently
over the years with friends, poorly written emails, and misunderstandings. When
I faced my reaction with compassion, I realized that I probably have been
reacting to other people, friends, coworkers, partners, and family with the
same kind of PTSD/Attachment wound and reciprocal behavior.
If you have twenty people in your life treat you with the
same anxious and paranoid response, you may become anxious yourself, expecting
that others may react to you in the same way. The unfortunate problem with
attachment wounds is that you may have 2000 people act fairly and
appropriately, but the only actions that truly registers in the subconscious
are the negative ones. This is the unfair premise of the attachment wound
process. When we hurt, it registers in our brain in a different way than when
we experience joy. Pain puts a mark in the subconscious and seems to build its
own neural pathway, only to be fortified by other negative reactions of pain.
So, how does one deal with the problems he/she faces as a
result of something that occurred in the past or something that happened even before
you were cognizant enough to have a choice? The action is rather simple in
nature, but hard to achieve if you are not self-aware and seeking peace of mind
and a connection to your own ego self.
We often identify the ego self as something we want to avoid
or diminish to become spiritual. But currently, your ego is the human
definition of your spirit dwelling in this human condition. You need to
understand the ego to make pertinent change in your behavior.
At birth, you were like a computer with no information on
it, but had hardware and the most recent update of the computer’s system
software. When you arrived on earth—or perhaps, as the example at the beginning
suggest, even in the prenatal state—you began to store data on your hard drive.
You truly didn’t get the opportunity to begin typing in your own data until you
were old enough to understand decision-making.
As a result, much of the initial information stored in your
hard drive either has to be erased or changed to update to your current
understanding of yourself.
The hardest issue is finding this information. You didn’t
input the information, so, most of the time, you have no idea where it had been
stored on your hard drive or subconscious, to complete the metaphor. You have
to wait until a situation or circumstance comes up in your life to show where
this information resides.
Once you find the problem or diagnose the misfire, it’s even
harder to figure out how that old wiring worked, as now your system software
has changed significantly as an adult. This is where life coaching and
hypnotherapy and meditation come in. To understand yourself and to find those
neural connectors, you have to get quiet and observant.
If you can’t find the way to that part of your mind, then
you can never make effective change in your outer circumstances. I’m not trying
to pander you for hypnosis sessions. I want you to understand that there are
few ways of undoing attachment problems. Even a therapist who believes in this
premise will take you into trancelike places, similar to hypnosis, to help you
begin to understand the workings of your own brain. In my estimation, the work is
not only similar to hypnosis, it is based on clinical hypnosis practices. So, a
trained hypnotherapist is much more likely to be able to take a diagnosis from
a therapist or psychologist, such as PTSD and anxiety from attachment disorder,
and help you make effective change more quickly using hypnosis, NLP, EFT, and
EMDR.

of the “Year to CLEAR
Challenge” at www.Bosebastian.com

Look for MY LATEST BOOK: “Finding Authentic You, 7 Steps to Effective Change” with a
Year to CLEAR (C-larity, L-ove, E-nthusiasm A-nd R-elationship-Ready) on my
Website in the Webstore. Thanks!
Below is information that I will be sharing for about a
month, as not every person on my list reads the blog every day. If you have
already read it, just skip over it. Thanks for understanding.
A
Year to CLEAR Challenge:
(Please Know: You Can Join Us At Any Point in the Year
Challenge.)
The masses search outward for things that qualify them as a
person, but I always go inward for that which quantifies me for greatness. At
twenty-five I preached on street corners in NYC as an in-the-closet Pentecostal
minister. One day I heard a still small voice say, ‘God cannot be contained in a
book or a law or even in a religion. Dig deeper, reach further to find me, and
you will find your authentic Self.’”
A Year to CLEAR Challenge!
The acronym CLEAR
stands for (Compassionate, Loving,
Enthusiastic, And Relationship-Ready). The goal of this project is to
engulf readers in a weekly study that will transform them by removing blocks,
promote self-growth, and give them wings to fly freely into daily life. Each
week, by going to BoSebastian.com and choosing the Year to CLEAR Challenge tab,
a new challenge or thought to provoke conversation, growth, and group
functionality.
My vision is to make Finding Authentic You the book to
have in your Kindle or on your computer. The book is a comprehensive look at
growth—spiritually, mentally, and physically.
As a yoga teacher and student of the Ayurvedic tradition, I bring
to the table understanding of physical challenges, the ability to overcome
mental problems with Life & Health Coaching, as well as hypnotherapy, and
expertise in meditation and spirituality as a minister.
The combination of all three in one book with an interactive
connection to like-minded readers, for one year, is what makes this Year to
CLEAR Challenge a must-do for every spiritual seeker.
The One-Year Approach to Change
No one believes he or she can change overnight. But success in
change comes from the metaphors of nature. Seasonally, life changes all around
us in nature. Finding Authentic You offers a gradual change perspective,
looking at the triune aspects of change as in yoga: Body, Mind and Spirit.
Accessing the
ability to change and finding
yourself actually pursuing change must be a daily search, which I call
getting to the “observer mind.”
In this frontal cortex of the brain we find the anatomy of
change and the power to counter every negative trigger of the human process.
The workings of Hypnosis, NLP (Neuro-linguistic Programming) and EMDR (Eye
Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) are all positive actions to help the
mind and body flow to a positive space for change.
Every aspect of FINDING AUTHENTIC YOU fulfills this
constant need for diffusing the negative past and dreaming of a fulfilling
future.
Step 1: Recognize That Change is Inevitable
Step 2: Release from Resistance
to Change
Step 3: Understanding Change and Allow Spirit to Define It
Step 4: A History Lesson—About You
Step 5: Look at Your Past with Compassion
Step 6: Making a Strong Commitment to Change
Step 7: Dream Your Fabulous Future
