Imprinting, Memory and Somatic Healing:

Most of us don’t remember early imprints cognitively and consciously because, as prenates and newborns, we are imprinted somatically and in our limbic brain (the emotional brain). These early imprints are, however, very easy to access and require no techniques. Early imprints are no less powerful for their lack of cognition. They are very pervasive and express themselves in how we feel about the world, life, others and ourselves. They show up a lot in our relationship and attachment patterns and in health issues. They affect us at all ages, on all levels.

Early imprinting doesn’t get re-patterned by talking about it. Talk therapy may help you to discover more about the story of what happened back then but it won’t change the imprinting itself. This is why somatic work is so important to resolve and re-pattern early imprints because they live in your Soul Body, not in your intellect.

New Internal Resources:

As you heal and re-connect with your early life we’ll be building new internal resources where you previously get what was needed. Isolation and separation are common experiences when you have early trauma. Loving, empathic connection re-patterns imprints and breaks the isolation that we felt “back then”. Support and new resources are added to our system allowing us to build new neural pathways, take better care of ourselves and  feel more connected. Building your internal adult skills are important too so that you can better parent yourself. We all need a competent loving adult self who can take care of our younger selves when they need care. Sometimes we need help to build this new resource so that our Little Ones within are not running our lives. Some examples of internal resources:

• Learning to orient to where you are inside of yourself, E.g., am I in a young part, in my adult self, am I triggered into an imprint, etc.
• Becoming more embodied, be able to notice when you are out of your body and have the skills to return to yourself
• The ability to recognize when you are triggered into an imprint that is not about present time reality, and to soothe yourself  so you can  return to a regulated nervous system
• Develop a stronger sense of an internal adult/caretaker/essence self so you can take really good care of yourself especially when triggered or challenged
