The Limbic Imprint

The Limbic Imprint is certainly not a new concept to today's world, yet it appears it is one aspect of birthing that has been passed over.  Limbic Imprinting is what happens following the birth of our babies into this new world.  A world that for some is greeted with noise, lights, voices, yelling, pain, surgical teams, poking, prodding and all over busyness.  When we are born into this environment, what we encounter first imprints within our cerebellum in one of the 5 lobes called the Limbic Lobe.  Our emotions, feelings and sensations are stored in the Limbic Lobe, which register and echo in the form of sensations throughout our body weather we realize it or not.  We are prepared to enter the world with love and when there is no love received, our first primal experiences are imprinted in us forever.  Being in this instance, disconnection, insecurity and no love.  When the love of parents is received at birth and the abundance of connection is established, the imprint is that of security, love and feeling of being where they are meant to be.  Is it wrong for me to want the imprint of love in all forms given to a newborn at birth? Certainly not, it is my duty as a Tapuhi to ensure that the imprint of all babies in made in the first instance of love.
