🌉 BRIDGING THE GAP Episode 23: Felt Safety: https://youtu.be/jX4VBbNf7hw✨ Safety is more than the absence of danger.Our nervous system needs to feel safe to fully relax, learn, and connect. How can we create an inner and outer environment of security?🧠 The Biology of Safety🔄 The amygdala scans constantly for threats—real or perceived.🧠 When we feel safe, the prefrontal cortex activates, allowing for higher reasoning and emotional regulation.🌍 Chronic stress can rewire the brain for hypervigilance—safety must be cultivated intentionally.🤝 A calm presence helps signal safety to others, reducing collective stress.🌬️ Breath as an Anchor🌱 Inhale security. Exhale tension.🔄 Slow, steady breathing reassures the nervous system.💞 Each breath reminds us: In this moment, I am safe.❤️ Creating a Safe Space🌊 Felt safety begins within—self-awareness and mindfulness reinforce inner stability.🛤️ Small, consistent signals of safety help rewire the nervous system over time.🔗 We create safety for others when we are grounded in our own sense of calm.💭 “When you know you are safe, you can be yourself.” — Dr. Stephen Porges#BridgingTheGap #FeltSafety #NeuroscienceOfCalm #SafeToHealSUBSCRIBE: Bridging the Gap (5 min Mindful Breathing Guided Meditation)YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/Mediastarllc2003
