Simply to experience powerful emotions in the presence of members of the fellowships and get from the beginning to the end of them without acting out or triggering a crisis or collapsing into helplessness is re-patterning and rewiring. Slowly, over time, it re-regulates our own emotional responses. It helps us to learn to listen to someone else while still tuning into our own inner voice; to be in connection with someone else while staying connected to ourselves. We learn how to be in the presence of other human beings without losing ourselves or wanting to annihilate someone else.The relational patterns encoded into the brain do not necessarily respond to insight alone. Instead they respond to the slow re-patterning or recoding of the complex brain and body systems that hold the story of who we are. We cannot rush our own mind re-regulation. Wishing someone “a slow recovery” carries with it this innate program wisdom.
