In psychology, limbic imprint refers to human’s subconscious behavioral and emotional patterns in our adulthood that were as developed a result of early experiences. [1] Limbic imprinting is an inborn ability of the nervous system to absorb and memorize, all of the information from its surrounding environment during formative the moment of conception through 9 months of gestation, birth, and the first few years of life.[2] This term is derived from the limbic system of the brain that is responsible for emotions and feelings where our early experiences are “imprinted” for the duration of ones life, therefore coining the term limbic imprint[1].The term is used to explain how early care of a fetus, newborn, and infant is important to lifelong psychological development, and has been used as an argument for alternative birthing methods, and against circumcision.[3] Our first experiences will be coded into our nervous system as a "comfort zone," acting as a surrogate for the love and nurturing, regardless of how painful, frustrating and undesirable it actually was.[4]
Lewis, Amini and Lannon, in their book A General Theory of Love, use the concept of limbic imprinting to explain lifelong patterns of poor love choices, explaining that the patterns of love and care received as a youth will affect the patterns of love that the adult seeks in their life.[5] Research done by the pioneers of prenatal psychology, such as: Dr.Thomas Verny, Dr. David Chamberlain, Dr. William Emerson shows that an overwhelming amount of physical conditions and behavioral disorders in are the direct result of traumatic gestation time and complications during delivery, including unnecessary mechanical interventions and an overdose of anesthesia.[4] Some therapists suggest a course of "limbic repatterning" to consciously rewrite bad limbic imprints and thus improve the patient's overall psychological health.[4] In order to reprogram one’s limbic imprint from suffering and helplessness it will required such therapist as cognitive resurcurstioning.[1] Traumatic birth and limbic imprinting has been linked to addictions, pour problem-solving skills, low self-esteem, and inability to be compassionate, to be responsible.[1]
