“That’s why it is important to know about the DMN, recognize it, and name it when it is savage. People may learn to keep themselves busy, text while they drive, stay numb, play video games,28 smoke cigarettes (which also turns off the DMN completely),29 or turn to other addictions or compulsions without even realizing that they have a cruel self-witness and that these activities let them silence it. On the other hand, if people have grown up with responsive, warm parents and without much trauma, their DMN may (almost unthinkably for so many) have a positive or encouraging tone.”

“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.
