your body remembers before you do 🫀🌙

Sometimes your body reacts before your mind understands. Your shoulders tighten. Your stomach drops. Your hands go cold. Someone says one ordinary sentence, and suddenly your whole system is standing at attention like a guard dog heard something outside 🐕‍🦺 Maybe you feel silly for it. Maybe you tell yourself, 'Nothing happened.' But your body isn't silly. It's remembering.

It remembers the rooms where you had to stay careful. The people whose moods changed fast. The times you weren't allowed to be fully relaxed 🕯️ So tonight, instead of fighting your body, try thanking it softly. It has been trying to protect you, even when its timing is messy. Place your palm where the tension lives. Breathe there. Tell yourself, 'We're not there right now.' You may not believe it immediately. That's okay 🤍 Safety can take time to feel real.
