Wow this explains everything so much, I’ve never felt more seen. All I ever think about is this kind of stuff. I didn’t know this was common amongst people with PTSD. I always felt there was something wrong with me for not being able to handle corporate drone type bs.
This is the first time I’ve heard of this and it makes so much sense to me. I’m so opposite my parents and brother. I also have a lot of trauma. I’m currently working through why money makes me so anxious and angry.
My father used money as such a manipulation tool to my mother. Ooh my brother is extrinsic and the GC and I’m intrinsic and the family scapegoat- no contact 3.5 years 🎉
Now in my late 40's and I'm really struggling to find meaning in what i do and i can barely look myself in the mirror for never having taken the chances to follow desires or dreams rather than just going with the flow. I wasn't aware of the 'intrinsic' meaning - it really hit home with me. Thanks, Karuna - I learn so much from you 🙏
Thank you for viewing, Nicolas. I know many can relate to your poignant sharing about following desires and dreams (and your thoughts as you looked in the mirror). Yes, our world, and often families, condition us to go with the flow, and to not think in a thoughtful, critical manner. When we wake up and see things from a larger vista, as you are, it is powerful and it can be disorienting as well. Life may be challenging, yes. But, when we are awake, we are blessed: Our life will steadily, slowly, begin to adhere and conform to deepened understanding. Questioning-and coming to terms with past actions that emerged from the earlier conditioning-is an important part of the process: We discover past choices were merely predictable symptoms and outcomes of conditioning and trauma. Therein, gentleness rises.
@@HubfortheHeart Thank you so much for your thoughtful and insightful reply. I deeply appreciate it ♥️ I think that at times the process of awakening and healing is almost just as painful as the trauma which manifested the issues, because it opens and reveals a lifelong neglect of the self. I guess that is when it becomes even more important to zoom out and get that larger perspective on the transition and journey that I'm on. Thanks again - wishing you a wonderful day ahead 🙏♥️
Thank you for viewing. Yes, absolutely, itʻs an incredible strain and I plan to do a future video about trauma and poverty as well. Thank you for bringing this up; itʻs an important topic.
Omg!!! Thanks God I found this info!!! Thanks Karuna!!
Sometimes I feel like being an intrinsic person, forced to adhere to an extrinsic world, is little tiny bits of trauma every day

This hits home

Being poor is one long trauma.
