For so many people, this is not something they were ever told. Instead, they learned to hide, minimize, or explain away what they felt just to stay safe or accepted. So hearing this sentence can feel like a soft exhale the body has been waiting for—a reminder that you don’t have to perform, pretend, or be okay to belong.

When your feelings are allowed, your nervous system can finally relax its guard. You’re no longer fighting yourself just to get through the day. In a space where emotions are welcomed, healing becomes possible—not because the pain disappears, but because you’re no longer alone with it. Here, you don’t have to earn your right to feel. You already have it.

Many of us grew up in environments where feelings weren’t welcomed. Maybe you were told to “be strong,” “stop crying,” or “don’t make a fuss.” Over time, your nervous system learned that emotions were unsafe. This practice gently teaches your body a new truth: feelings are allowed. Permission is powerful medicine.

So much of what overwhelms us feels powerful because it’s undefined. When emotions stay unnamed, they can swirl in the body as anxiety, tension, or numbness. But the moment you pause and say, This is fear, or This is grief, or This is anger, something shifts. You’re no longer drowning in the feeling—you’re standing beside it, able to see it more clearly.

Naming doesn’t make the pain disappear, but it makes it manageable. It gives your nervous system a sense of order and safety: I know what this is. I can be with it. In that small act of awareness, you reclaim choice, steadiness, and a little more space to breathe.

Once you name that you’re not okay, the next step is curiosity. Instead of judging yourself for feeling off, gently turn toward your inner world and ask, What am I actually feeling right now? Is it sadness, fear, anger, loneliness, or something softer and harder to name? Curiosity creates space where compassion can grow.

When you put words to your emotions, you help your nervous system understand what’s happening. Feelings that stay vague tend to get stuck in the body as tension, heaviness, or restlessness. But when you name them, they begin to move, soften, and shift. You’re not trying to fix yourself—you’re simply listening. And that act of listening is already part of healing.

So many of us learned—directly or quietly—that love is something you earn by being strong, pleasant, productive, or healed. But this quote reminds us of a gentler truth: your worth isn’t measured by how well you’re coping. Even in your messiest moments, when you feel tired, triggered, or unsure, you are still deserving of tenderness, patience, and support.

Care is not a reward for having it all together—it’s a human need. You are allowed to receive kindness on your hard days, not just your good ones. Let this be your permission to rest in the truth that you don’t have to fix yourself first to be worthy of being held with compassion. 💛

Detriggering starts with honesty, not positivity.
The first step is naming the truth: “I’m not okay.” This isn’t being negative — it’s being regulated. When you tell the truth about how you feel, your nervous system no longer has to stay on high alert to get your attention. It begins to settle because it feels seen, believed, and supported instead of bypassed.

🧠 When emotions are acknowledged, they move.
🚫 When they’re ignored, they intensify.
🤍 Regulation begins with self-trust.

🌿 We’ll practice naming what’s true safely during February Healing Week. You’re welcome if this feels supportive.

Calm isn’t something you can force your way into. It grows when you offer your body safety instead of pressure and patience instead of judgment. When you stop demanding peace and start creating the conditions for it, your nervous system learns that it’s allowed to soften — and that’s when calm begins to arrive.

20/01/2026

Here’s a gentle 4-step list for de-triggering with safety and compassion:

1. Notice without judging – Acknowledge what’s happening in your body (tight chest, racing thoughts, shallow breath) without trying to fix it right away. Awareness is the first signal of safety.

2. Slow the body first – Use your breath, a grounding touch, or a steady gaze to tell your nervous system it’s okay to come out of survival mode.

3. Create internal safety – Offer yourself reassurance like, “I’m here with you,” or “This will pass.” Your inner voice matters.

4. Return with gentleness – When you feel a little more settled, slowly re-engage with what you were doing, honoring your limits and pacing yourself with care.

De-triggering is not about control — it’s about building trust with your nervous system, one safe moment at a time.

when you train your brain to look for those glimmers, you start noticing them more...

Safety creates space inside you — space to breathe, to feel, and to think without being rushed by fear. When your nervous system isn’t stuck in survival mode, there’s room for curiosity instead of panic and choice instead of reaction. In that space, you’re not just coping with life — you’re actually living it.

hoosing glimmers isn’t about pretending everything is fine or avoiding what’s hard — it’s about helping your nervous system settle enough to face reality without shutting down or exploding. When you pause for a breath, notice something steady, or connect with a moment of calm, you’re giving your body the regulation it needs to think, feel, and respond more clearly.

From that regulated place, challenges don’t disappear — but your relationship to them changes. Instead of being flooded by overwhelm, you can approach problems with more presence, perspective, and choice. Safety becomes the ground you stand on, not the thing you run from.
