“Our infant bodies don’t actually know that we are separate beings at all. An infant only exists in relationship. It is natural for infants to try to give the only thing they have—their own nervous systems—to try to balance and care for their parents. This longing for the other’s well-being can become an unconscious contract to always try to make things better for the people we love, no matter the cost to ourselves. Peyton, Sarah. Your Resonant Self Workbook: From Self-sabotage to Self-care (p. 16). W. W. Norton & Company. Kindle Edition.”
