Hello, hello, and welcome to the Borealis
Unknown:experience. I'm your host Aurora, life coach and companion
Unknown:on this beautiful journey called life. Today I'm recreating in
Unknown:the outdoors, you might hear the snow melt in the background
Unknown:and lots of dripping. Yeah, funny enough, I chose to speak
Unknown:about your nervous system today. And how we need to learn to be
Unknown:patient with our nervous system, when we introduce change into
Unknown:allies, or when change is, so to say, happening upon us from the
Unknown:outside. And just now when I wanted to record this episode,
Unknown:my computer decided to mouth down. So to say, I'm not gonna
Unknown:go into further details. But I had a choice, I had a choice to
Unknown:meltdown myself and to just throw my precious laptop out the
Unknown:window. Or I could listen to my dad's latest video from
Unknown:Barcelona. He had visited Barcelona a couple of days ago
Unknown:and decided to go to a Spanish guitar concert. So instead of
Unknown:losing my shit, I had to decided to listen to that beautiful
Unknown:music, Spanish guitar and kept my cool. downloaded a new
Unknown:software onto my computer. And now everything is running
Unknown:smoothly, again, very excited. But yeah, I was really given a
Unknown:choice here. And in my younger days, I probably would have lost
Unknown:my mind. So your nervous system. I want to start with an example.
Unknown:Let's pretend that you grew up in a household where dispute
Unknown:Express expressing anger was something totally normal. In
Unknown:fact, the way you guys decided to express your emotions was
Unknown:always related to arguments and anger. Yeah, you would laugh at
Unknown:times when you watched a comedy or when something happened. And
Unknown:you could laugh at the other person at your relatives. But
Unknown:it's mainly anger that you were surrounded with this Prime's
Unknown:your nervous system. So no matter what you experienced at
Unknown:home, I'm just picking anger now because it's very easy to relate
Unknown:to anger, at least for me. And you were exposed to a lot of
Unknown:anger can be depression. If you grew up with a parent that was
Unknown:depressed it can be. Yeah, ambiguity or unpredictability.
Unknown:Your nervous system would always be on guard would always be
Unknown:ready for Worst case scenario. But when it comes to anger,
Unknown:let's say your nervous system is getting used to stress and your
Unknown:whole body, your whole being is getting used to that
Unknown:environment. And it is a way for us to survive. It is a way for
Unknown:us to feel that we belong which in many, many episodes I
Unknown:mentioned, because it is our strongest desire and a big need
Unknown:that we feel that we belong. So no matter which environment you
Unknown:grew up in, you adjust it, you compromised. You adapt it. Now
Unknown:with the example of anger, you adapted to anger and expressing
Unknown:anger is very natural for you. You're allowed. You express it.
Unknown:You let it all out. It feels like when you suppress it when
Unknown:you don't let it out you feel constipated, so to say on a soul
Unknown:level. Maybe even on a physical level. You don't feel okay when
Unknown:you're not allowed to express anger. Because this is what you
Unknown:learned
Unknown:is normal Fast forward into your adulthood, let's say you are in
Unknown:your 30s and your 40s.
Unknown:Maybe you're not married, maybe you are. But maybe you're
Unknown:dating. And you happen to be with a personnel who's very
Unknown:calm. And when they get upset when something is not going
Unknown:their way, they choose words. They stay calm. And they express
Unknown:themselves in a very different ways and what you are used to.
Unknown:Now, this can either highly irritate you, or stimulate you.
Unknown:Or you would want to reject that person, because you feel that
Unknown:you cannot be yourself. You cannot express yourself, you
Unknown:feel restricted. And the funny thing is that, yes, you feel
Unknown:restricted in the way that you used to communicate. But there's
Unknown:so many other ways that you can express yourself, but maybe you
Unknown:haven't learned that yet. It is very interesting to observe
Unknown:couples, young couples, or people that are just starting
Unknown:out to date, they usually no put forward they're nice, nice
Unknown:behavior, the good side, they never fight. They're always
Unknown:joyous. They're excited to see each other. But come the one
Unknown:year or sometimes two year benchmark. Chances are that you
Unknown:went through a couple disagreements, a couple
Unknown:discomforts. And it is there that you can see how different
Unknown:we all grow up. We manage to approach conflicts differently.
Unknown:Some are very energetic and very impulsive, very emotional about
Unknown:conflict. And some people withdraw or become avoidant or,
Unknown:yeah, totally shut down. When it comes to healing. The
Unknown:interesting part about you know, being in an abusive
Unknown:relationship, or growing up in an abusive household, is that
Unknown:once you meet a partner, that is good for you, there will be
Unknown:parts that feel wrong to your nervous system. Because they
Unknown:don't stimulate you, like the people that you grew up with the
Unknown:people that you experienced love with. And this is not meant in
Unknown:any weird way. But it is through your mom, to your dad through
Unknown:your siblings. Or if you grew up in a different environment, your
Unknown:primary caretakers that you learn what love is, they prime
Unknown:you so to say, but it is not necessarily the best version of
Unknown:love for you. There's many different ways of experiencing
Unknown:and living in love. And sometimes when we grow out of
Unknown:Yeah, not so good pattern, when we hear we will encounter people
Unknown:that set us off or trigger us or either under stimulate us or
Unknown:over stimulate us, depending what we were used to. But this
Unknown:is what I want to emphasize today is that sometimes the very
Unknown:best thing for you the very best person for you the very best
Unknown:decision for you and your future, your Higher Self your
Unknown:best self feels awkward fields wrong to some degree fields
Unknown:uncomfortable. And it is very important to keep in mind that
Unknown:your nervous system has to slowly adjust. You cannot force
Unknown:change upon you and nobody else outside of you can do it.
Unknown:Although sometimes people think they can. But you can learn to
Unknown:feel with your heart and with your mind that something
Unknown:somebody who's standing in front of you might be damn right for
Unknown:you. Yet your nervous system is still limping behind. It wants
Unknown:you to be in the known. Right our mind always wants to be
Unknown:knowing everything is always drawn to what we know best. But
Unknown:it is not necessarily what is best for us. Sometimes it is so
Unknown:worth it to choose discomfort. For some people, you know, that
Unknown:are very active with online dating. They've been single for
Unknown:a long time, and they just are becoming restless, they want to
Unknown:be in a relationship, they want to have kids, they want to all
Unknown:that jazz. And they did somebody that is their best match. But
Unknown:they are bored. That oh my god, this is this is so quiet, this
Unknown:is so calm. And even though their heart feels at ease with
Unknown:them, the nervous system rejects them. Because it's not ready
Unknown:yet. But you can train your nervous system. And you can
Unknown:become aware that your nervous system is still a little bit
Unknown:behind. But what you have sitting in front of you is
Unknown:right. And so worth fighting for. That's why the path of
Unknown:pleasure and desire. Fun is not always the right path for you.
Unknown:I've learned that like two and a half years ago when I met my
Unknown:partner, and my best friend by then said, Hey, you keep picking
Unknown:the cherry and the whipped cream, go for the salary. And
Unknown:what he meant by that is that I kept chasing people that were
Unknown:unavailable. Sweet, exciting. And whenever I met somebody who
Unknown:was calm and loving and opening up to me, I thought, Oh no, this
Unknown:is not what I can handle. I'm not there yet.
Unknown:was Alex my current partner I wanted to give myself a fair
Unknown:chance I wanted to explore beyond that little boredom what
Unknown:I felt and I feel so bad, so horrible when I say boredom, but
Unknown:that's how I felt. I felt totally under stimulated yet my
Unknown:heart was telling me this guy is good for your soul.
Unknown:And I learned
Unknown:that this overly stimulation outside of me was just a
Unknown:reflection from my inside. I was so disturbed, so confused, so
Unknown:lost inside that. Yeah, stimulation was keeping me in
Unknown:check and calmness faced or mirrored the BS that was going
Unknown:on inside of my head and my heart. And I wanted to run away
Unknown:from it. But for some reason with this person, I decided to
Unknown:stand still for a moment and to breathe through it and to see
Unknown:what it has in stock for me. Instead of escaping, I decided
Unknown:to dig deeper. And it served me very well. And this is why I'm
Unknown:so passionate. I'm so yeah, I feel a deep urgency to share
Unknown:this with you. Because when I've learned that my nervous system
Unknown:was primed to something that is not serving me anymore, that is
Unknown:actually not good for me. I was able to distinguish what is good
Unknown:for me and what not. And remember my coaching. My
Unknown:podcasting here is all about supporting you on your journey
Unknown:to get to know yourself better. If you feel called to get
