We all, every person (whether they struggle with food or not), have developed ways to feel safe. We’ve learned ways, starting in childhood, to feel safe. Now what "safe” is is different for every person. But those feelings of safety (which can be a combination of feeling secure, lovable, connected, attached, worthy) – are all deeply wired in our circuity. They are in fact, the most important feelings we can experience. And we’re wired to intensely and severely crave that safety because as children, our survival depends on our feelings of safety.
And here’s the thing. What you’ll typically see, is that the thing which once kept us safe when we were children, now, often, keeps us small.
