When You Can’t Put It Into Words: Why We Start With the Body
Ever felt a heaviness in your chest… but no words to explain it?
Or found yourself saying, “I’m fine,” while your body is quietly telling another story?
Not all healing begins with talking.
Sometimes, talk therapy focuses on thoughts and stories, while the nervous system remains stuck in its old patterns.
But the body remembers.
It carries the unshed tears, the held breath, the braced shoulders, the clenched gut.
This is where somatic movement and breath come in.
They give the body a voice. One that speaks through sensation rather than words.
A way to gently reintroduce safety, presence, and integration.
💫 You don’t have to explain everything to begin.
Sometimes the first step is simply to breathe, move, and notice what’s already there.
