Your Body is Keeping Score đź§ đź’Ą
Ever wonder why your back always hurts, your digestion is a mess, or you can’t seem to turn off your brain at 2 AM?
The truth is: When emotions don’t get released, they don’t leave. They aren't problems to be solved they are signals meant to get you ready to act. But because it often feels "safer" to push them down to keep the peace, your body ends up holding the rest.
The "Soda Can" Effect 🥤
Think of your body like a soda can. If you keep shaking it without letting the pressure out, nothing disappears the pressure just builds until it eventually explodes as:
Chronic tension in your neck or back.
Brain fog and low energy.
Digestive issues or a tight chest.
Emotional outbursts you didn't see coming.
How to Complete the Cycle 🔄
A healthy nervous system isn't about "staying calm" all the time. It’s about letting your body respond, then recover.
Whether it’s Anger (which needs safe movement like stomping or screaming into a pillow), Anxiety (which needs 5-4-3-2-1 grounding), or Grief (which needs permission to move in waves) your emotions are looking for a way out.
