Seven Essential Needs
From The SpiritWiki
According to the LP, the Seven Essential Needs are:
- Physiological needs (food, water, sex)
- Safety needs (safe home, safe spaces to develop). Note, safety includes the absence of assault of any kind, including physical assault (e.g., spanking), and emotional and psychological assault.
- Love needs (unconditional support, acceptance, inclusion)
- Need for truth/understanding
- Need for esteem/Power (need to feel good about one’s self)
- Need for alignment with Highest Self (in psychology, self-actualization)
- Need for connection with Highest Self (in Transpersonal Psychology, transcendence; in Christianity, Islamic, salvation; in Buddhism, enlightenment; etc.)
In order for a Physical Unit to grow up healthy and Connected, all these needs must be completely met.
