Fight, flight, freeze, or sex

Ep #52 - In this week's episode we dive into the fight, flight, freeze, or sex (it's technically called the 4 F's) of the human response system known as the amygdala and it's corresponding opposite - the cerebral cortex or cognitive thinking center of the brain.

Why are we getting into this? So you can look around you and see who is operating emotionally triggered versus emotionally centered? Well, yeah, I want you to be able to do that. More importantly, I would like to introduce you to why you behave the way you do after an emotional trauma - such as a break-up.

I am getting into a book on abandonment and it is an eye opener. Heartbreak is pretty much inevitable at some point in your lifetime and college is ripe for it. Understanding that emotionally reacting is a human conditioned response, and not something to be ashamed of, is particularly great to know because beating yourself up for having emotions is a horrible way to go through life - let alone college.

If you would like to know more about the abandonment book I am working through here's the link.
