What does it mean to fulfill or nurture a need?

Needs are somatic - meaning they are experienced in the body, and their fulfillment is found in the body.

This makes our needs interdependent experiences - both with you to yourself, you to others, and others to you.

A need being fulfilled or nurtured means your body is having experiences that fulfill the desire that need has.

Example: I want warm affection.  I then reach out to a person who has warm affection for me, and we do things that are warm for me - like a movie, deep talk, making each other laugh.  These are fulfilling that need.

So, how do you know you have a need?

You feel a hunger or yearning for something. It can be very loud or very quiet, usually growing in intensity the longer it goes without nourishment.

Learn how needs are recongized and fulfilled in today's episode!
