The two kinds of sadness are nutritive and habitual.
Nutritive sadness is if you lost a loved one, the death of a love one ect.
Habitual sadness in the cellular structure. Comes out as a defence, because as a child you couldn't get what you wanted. If we can sence, that we are not connected enough, wasn't feeded enough or at the right time as babies or there was a lot of fear when we were born, i f .
When we can not werbalise this as babies, we feel the sadness in our bodies and in our cells. We shut down. It gets locked in our somatic self/in our biology/in our philosophy. (Not in our emotions)
This understanding of sadness is influenced by SE by Peter Levine. These specific distinctions are from a Peter Levine Master Class titled: Depression, Healthy Aggression, and Life Energy. A brief summary: when one is robbed of life force energy, usually a result of early childhood trauma and toxic shaming parenting practices, it leads to a turning INWARDS of oneself along with a false sense of self (mainly because the true self was squashed early on due to the inability of the primary caretakers to fully accept and be able to be with the energy of expression of their young). This sets up a vicious cycle within the child, and eventually adult, which leads to an insidious sense of unworthiness, deep biological and postural shame, plus the inability to express healthy life force energy and aggression (standing up for self; setting boundaries; moving and pushing ahead in life via relationship, personal health, and career, to name a few.)
When we start to heal, we begin to feel worthy, feeling more alive, that we have the right to feel our feelings, to laugh ect.
