I think a lot of shyness is due to not receiving enough nurturing from mother as a child. I used to be painfully shy years ago...now that I have discovered this simple exercise in self-nurturing, I feel way more comfortable. I think we feel shy also because we do not feel self empowered. Self empowerment comes in part from self nurturing. I hope this helps, please read on. It is my thanksgiving message to those who may need it. It sure helped me.
Happy Giving Thanks!
Something I wanted to share with everyone, especially in this season of food and feeding the soul and stomach, lol, with everyone needing to hear this.
Nurturing...I believe that much dysfunction exists because people do not know how to self-nurture. Most of us know that dysfunction is due to fear. But those who know how to self-nurture definitively fear-less.
People who were not touched or held enough as babies, especially babies who were not breast fed by their moms tend to lack the ability to nurture themselves as adults, to a large part.
That has been one of my biggest problems, not knowing how to nurture myself, until recently that is and yet it is so simple an exercise that everyone does it every time they go out for fast food like KFC for example, no wonder fast food is so popular!!! Just the act of eating it with our own hands self nurtures!
To me that is the self-nurturing key, finger food, rather, eating with our fingers, it would also resolve a lot of problems for those with eating disorders!!! Eat everything with your fingers, well perhaps not soup, lol, you might just feel better but now you will know why, at the least you just might remember why it is young ones suck their thumbs!
With joy and love, A very Happy Giving Thanks to you and yours.
