Listen "Love Is a Verb: How to Rebuild Your Brain for Safe Connection and Finally Feel Loved"
Episode Synopsis
Explains that love is a learned action rather than simply an innate feeling, especially for people who feel they have never truly experienced it. It highlights how early trauma or conditional affection can create the perception that love is unsafe, leading to emotional numbness as a protective response. The content stresses that neuroplasticity allows the brain to learn love at any age through consistent, small moments of connection, citing research on adverse childhood experiences and positive emotions. It also encourages beginning by “borrowing” love—absorbing it through stories, media, or examples—and then making love a verb through intentional actions like kindness and self-care. Ultimately, it underscores that authentic love is often quiet and built over time through care and noticing small moments of connection, even if emotions initially feel muted due to past wounds.Produced by:https://www.podcaistudio.com/
