MBL Minute: Fear And Loving Friendships
Episode Notes
Appealing to someone’s fear will always win in
the short term. It is the easiest emotion to
arouse. Our brain has evolved
to scan constantly for potential threats. It defines a threat
as anything related to a past pain. Pain is a valuable tool
that wires the brain to avoid future pain. It works without
conscious intent as your brain scans the world for information
relevant to our continued survival.
A loving friend would never ask someone to not be themselves. The actions of a loving friend encourage the inspire us to want to be our most authentic selves. Learning to lower our walls is the key. We need to shed the walls of resistance, judgment and attachment to outcome that have been built up over time which separates us from our authentic selves.
