The Enchanted LoomTeasing sturdy threads from neuroscience masterworks
Teasing 10 threads fromBonnie Badenoch’s …
Thread 1:
Many years of research tell us that the single most important ingredient in effective therapy,regardless of theparadigm, is theempathic capacityof the therapist.
(pg. 5)
Thread 2:
The very process of directing attention to aparticular memory adds the energy and information of the present moment tothat memory.
(pg. 9)
Thread 3:
Right hemisphere processing is holistic and nonlinear, taking everything in at once in a receptiveway. Working with the right hemisphereis the bedrock of healingin therapy.
(pg. 20)
Thread 4:
Sadly, one axiom that often proves true is that the greater the early wounding, the more power uncon-scious, implicit mem-ories exert in the pre-sent, until there is some kind of integra-tive healing experience.
(pg. 26)
Thread 5:
9 functions of the middle prefrontal area:
1. Regulation of the body2. Attuned communication3. Regulation of emotion4. Response flexibility5. Empathy6. Insight7. Intuition8. Fear extinction9. Morality
(pg. 33)
Thread 6:
When it comes to empathy, all relation-ships are “sloppy.” Healthy mothers with securely attached kids only tune in to them roughly33% of the time.The quick reliefof distress is key.
(pg. 34)
Thread 7:
Attachment patterns begin when only implicit memory is available; one key lies in right brain to right brain, bodily-based regulatory experiences throughout life.
(pg. 59)
Thread 8:
Interestingly, the longing for connection appears to be embedded in neural cellsin the chestaround the heart, makingsense of thingslike heartachesand broken hearts.
(pgs. 65)
Thread 9:
Internal relationships with our own psychetell us what we can expect in external rela-tionships. These self-stories carry so much power, we respond to them like heat-seeking missileslooking for peoplewho will help usreplicate what wemost deeply believe.
(pg. 81)
Thread 10:
There is no greater source of spiritual misery than projecting our hurtful parents onto the spiritual realm, as either a punitive or distant God, a debilitating shame over moral lapses, or a well of despair.
(pg. 96)
