You see, your nervous system only has the capacity for what it knows. – So when you receive that beautiful, healthy love, your system says: ‘It’s too much!’” — Sarah Baldwin [0:20:01]“If a relationship is right for you and you have experienced a blueprint in the past of love not being secure and full and not just breadcrumbs, then it’s going to be very challenging at first, and so, you’re going to feel dysregulated.” — Sarah Baldwin [0:21:27]
