All humans, read nervous systems, seek safety. Unconsciously, my nervous system seeks co-regulation from other people. They often don’t do that directly, and without knowing it, they cross boundaries, their own boundaries and my boundaries.
Much of our society is focused in a dissociative way on my regulation, services, products, entertainment. mostly unaware of what something is meant to do at its core. By being more aware of my hitherto unconscious regulatory urges, I can choose more freely, make other decisions, choose other pursuits, consciously seek healthy regulation, step out of (addiction) patterns.
