The Biological Purpose of Arrested Development

The Biological Purpose of Arrested Development

Developmental arrest isn't about intelligence or emotions.

In this episode, I explain why it is better understood as hesitation, a waiting state, and a meaningful part of evolution via a constellation of two (or more) temporal lobe conflicts in the cerebral cortex.

I also discuss:

  • why childish "appeal to authority" logic can distort understanding in Germanic New Medicine
  • why two people in the same traumatic situation usually create different conflicts (or no conflict at all)
  • why developmental arrest is about waiting, not stupidity

  • how to help yourself or someone else understand what you're waiting for when your in developmental arrest

  • why growth is very rapid once those conflicts begin to resolve

  • the special abilities that have been developing during that waiting period

If you or someone you love seems developmentally stuck in a certain area of life, this episode offers a different way to think about that state: not as pointless failure, but as meaningful delay with evolutionary purpose.
