✨🌿🌱Sometimes we talk about our trauma like we’re reading a script.Perfectly said.
But not felt. That’s not avoidance.
That’s your system protecting you.
Saying:
“I’m not ready to feel this yet. But I’m still here.” You don’t have to force the feeling.
You can pause the story.
Come back to your body.
Ask:
Does this memory have a shape? A temperature? A color? That’s where healing begins 
not in reliving it,
but in relating to it. Relating to our trauma means we’re no longer trapped inside it but we’re not denying it either. When reliving Trauma, we can flood our system . It gets overwhelmed, retraumatized, stuck on repeat. When we explain trauma, we detach, we stay safe in the intellect, it’s a state of cognitive control. We can’t think our way out of what our body remembers. We feel it from a place that says you’re safe now. In this present moment . I’m with you . 
One seen feeling at a time. You matter.
Your pace matters.
And you don’t have to do it alone. 🖤
