Near You Always

This is a Jewel cover by Leah Kumayama. The lyrics of this song teach about how intergenerational trauma and Complex Childhood Attachment Trauma (CPTSD) show up in relationships, where people lack control over emotions and fall into harmful patterns of behavior. Limerence is a symptom of CPTSD that can show up in romantic relationships or dynamics where illusions of love can cause people to feel addicted/obsessive about others who do not provide emotional safety, interest or reciprocity. These patterns of unprocessed traumatic emotions and behaviors mirror what people experience with emotionally immature caregivers during childhood, and can be passed down through the DNA for 3-4 generations if they are not released from the body. These involuntary trauma responses can be healed through building self empathy and healing intergenerational and childhood trauma.
