The Bladder – The Fear of Fearlessness:
The bladder is a hollow elastic organ that collects urine.
Urine enters the bladder from above via the ureters
Urine exits the bladder from below via the urethra.
In the embryo, the bladder is derived from the urogenital sinus that separates from the GI tract.
In the male, the bladder lies in front of the rectum, behind the pubic bone and above the prostate.
In the female, the bladder lies under the uterus and in front of the vagina.
In the human male, the urethra opens at the end of the penis.
In the female, the urethra exits between the clitoris and the vagina.
In the male, the urethra provides an exit for both urine as well as semen.
The smooth muscle fibers of the bladder are arranged in spiral, longitudinal, and circular patterns.
For urine to exit the bladder two urethral sphincters must be opened simultaneously.
One sphincter is voluntary the other involuntary.
If the volume of urine exceeds the bladder’s capacity, the voluntary sphincter becomes involuntary and the urine will be released.
From a subconscious self point of view, the bladder stores and releases emotion-infused water.
From a traumatized subconscious self point of view, fear confuses the voluntary and involuntary spincters.
When fear confuses the two sphincters, the conscious self is compelled to be too retrained or to lax.
When the subconscious self is empty, there is no surrender or overpowering.
