I feel this so much when giving healing to my clients. Our bodies store so much mental and emotional issues and it manifests physically in our bodies.
Your body is not just flesh and bones—it’s a living journal that records every unspoken word, every suppressed feeling, and every unhealed wound. What the mind tries to bury, the body quietly carries.
Here’s where emotions often hide:
🔹 Throat – When you silence yourself, hold back your truth, or swallow your feelings, tension collects here. That tightness in your throat, the sore voice, the urge to constantly clear it—it’s your body asking you to finally speak.
🔹 Shoulders & Neck – The “weight of the world” is not just a phrase. Stress, duties, and endless responsibilities pile up here. That stiffness you feel? It’s your body telling you to put some burdens down.
🔹 Chest/Heart – Grief, heartbreak, and deep sadness lodge in the chest. A “heavy heart” is more than poetry; it’s a real, physical experience of carrying unexpressed sorrow.
🔹 Stomach & Gut – Anxiety, fear, and constant worry upset digestion. Your gut is called the “second brain” for a reason—it feels every storm of your emotions.
🔹 Hips – Trauma and fear often settle here, especially from experiences we never fully processed. Tight hips sometimes tell stories the mouth never could.
🔹 Jaw – Teeth grinding, clenching, or tension in the jaw is often unspoken anger, frustration, or words we were too afraid to release.
🔹 Lower Back – Feelings of lack, insecurity, or not being supported in life often show up here. Financial struggles and fear of failure can literally weigh on your spine.
🔹 Head – Overthinking, constant pressure to achieve, and mental overload lead to headaches and tension in the scalp.
✨ Lesson: The body remembers what the mind forgets. When we don’t process emotions, they don’t disappear—they simply move in and take up space in our physical form.
🌸 Healing begins when we listen. Breathe deeply. Move consciously. Cry when you must. Speak your truth. Release what no longer serves you.
As the Buddha taught: “Holding onto anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else—you are the one who gets burned.”
🕊 Free your emotions. Free your body. Free your spirit.
