Your mind knows the event is over, but your fascia is still reacting as if it’s happening right now. This isn’t a character flaw; it is your Vagus Nerve performing a loyal defense for a younger version of you that is still waiting for the “all-clear” signal.
Since 90% of the input to your brain travels UP from your tissues, you cannot “reason” your way into feeling safe while your gut and diaphragm are physically braced for an impact from the past.
Try this today to begin “differentiation”:
The next time you feel that familiar flash of anxiety or anger, stop and place a hand on your solar plexus (the space just below your ribs). Instead of trying to “fix” the thought, simply acknowledge the physical brace. Say to your tissues: “I feel you standing guard. That was then; this is now.”
By bringing awareness to the physicality of the defense, you begin to break the loop and remind your biology that it is safe to arrive in the present.
Comment “𝗖𝗔𝗠𝗣” and join us on a 5-week virtual expedition to flush the historical pressure and finally arrive in the safety of the present.
The expedition begins June 21st.
