Rewiring the Inner Child That’s Still in Charge
Presented By: Saman Nasir, CCHt
In this neuroscience-informed presentation, AOS Graduate, Saman Nasir, CCHt, explores how the inner child isn’t just an image or a concept, but a real set of neural survival maps encoded in the limbic system—the part of the brain that controls emotions.
Through the triune brain model, attachment theory and memory reconsolidation science, Saman breaks down what’s actually happening when clients “feel five years old” during adult conflicts and why insight alone can’t reach the parts of the brain where these reactions live.
You’ll learn how childhood imprinting affects the amygdala, hippocampus, and vagus nerve and how to detect when the inner child is running the show. You’ll gain easy-to-use tools on how to calm these areas of the brain and nervous system, while also being empowered with the knowledge to understand clients, yourself, and others better—professionally and personally.
