Emotions aren't just in your mind… they are felt in your body.

Unprocessed emotions, particularly fear, grief, or trauma, create holding patterns in your fascia, leading to tightness, restricted movement, or even chronic pain. Because fascia is rich in sensory nerves, fascia stores unprocessed stress and trauma when there's no safe outlet.

That's why you might cry in deep stretches or feel "stuck" after doing all the work. Also, in Chinese medicine, fascia is linked to the Liver and sinew channels, which store repressed anger and blocked energy (qi).

That lump in your throat, the weight in your chest, or the tightness in your hips?
Your fascia is holding onto past experiences.

When your nervous system is in fight, flight, or freeze, your fascia contracts to protect you. Over time, if stress remains unresolved, fascia stays rigid, limiting movement and disrupting circulation, lymph flow, and even breath patterns.

The longer tension is held, the more deeply ingrained it becomes-until the body is given permission to release.

LET IT FLOW

Fascia is 70% water and collagen. It needs hydration, movement, and safety to function.

When it's stiff, signals don't flow. Emotions can't move. Healing stalls.

When it's fluid, you feel:
🦋 Lightness
🦋 Emotional release
🦋 Regulation
🦋 Expansion in your breath and being

It's like clearing a dam and letting life force return to your tissues.

Basic Fascia Healing Tips

🌟Hydrate optimally: Water! Water! Water! Add Ningxia Red + Mineral Essence for even more fluid, elastic fascia. Of course, Bloom Collagen Complete is nurturing to all connective tissue, including the fascia
🌟Daily movement - such as walking and RAINBOW QIGONG
🌟Stretch consciously, not aggressively. Fascia responds to slow, sustained release.
🌟Targeted breathwork
🌟SLOW DOWN!! Allow your body to unwind chronic tension
🌟Check your posture. How you hold your body affects how your body holds you.

Your gut isn’t just about digestion. It’s at the center of your body, and when things are stuck there, the effects ripple out everywhere else.

Congestion in the gut can create pressure, inflammation, and restriction that shows up as back pain, hip pain, leg pain, or even stiffness in your joints.
It’s all connected.

This is why I pay so much attention to the abdomen. When we free up tension here, the whole body often feels lighter, looser, and more balanced.

If you’ve been chasing pain in your back, hips, or joints and nothing seems to last, it may be time to listen to what your gut is trying to tell you.

When one has chronic symptoms and pain, most of the time .. for years, one aspect that must be understood when coming for treatment is that ‘the body knows how to heal itself’ with the proper guidance and treatment but it’s a process…. Not a surgery!! The body has to go through gradual changes in the fascial system that have been STUCK patterns for years… possibly since birth!! If you’ve had chronic pain and symptoms for months and years, you can be free of it but it takes TIME and more than just one or two sessions! We are so used to living in a “quick fix “ world where surgery or harmful injections are a fast and ‘quick fix’ but usually only TEMPORARY!! Sometimes those treatments are necessary and can help you on the right path. Just know that TRUE HEALING IS A PROCESS! Choose your your own direction and give your body time to go through the process of healing. ❤️‍🩹

MFR Myth: If my imaging is clear I must be fine.

Truth: Nope. Not at all.
Scans can’t pick up fascia. Not MRI, not X-ray.
So when those come out with no issues, what they aren’t seeing is the 2000 pounds per square inch of pressure they are putting on your nerves, muscles and bones.

Basically strangling everything inside of you.

And then your doctor has the nerve to tell you “you’re fine” and sends you off with some muscle relaxers.

Or slaps you with a Fibromyalgia diagnosis and tells you good luck.

When really, your fascia just needs some loving.
