Your nervous system is really just worried about your safety. Until we address our healing from this angle, healing be completed. Until we connect the mind and the body, healing is very limited.
Healing is all about showing safety to our nervous system. Helping it become unstuck from a survival state. You can do all the pills, diets, rigid daily routines, but if you are missing the mind, you are only settling for a mediocre healing. Or no healing at all.
Did you know?
Anxiety, depression, numbness, brain fog, disconnection, chronic pain, and fatigue are all ways your body tries to keep you safe? It will do these symptoms as a way to protect you from a perceived (often subconscious) threat.
Your symptoms are not the problem. They are messengers to you that there is a lack of felt safety within your nervous system. They are not just random. They are messengers leading to the solution.
Below are some simple examples of what safety looks like to the nervous system.
- Feeling seen and supported by loved ones.
- The ability to be fully you.
- Deep breathes.
- Weighted blankets.
- Sunshine
- Permission to slow down.
- Being able to speak up for your needs and being heard.
- Words of encouragement.
- Hugs.
- Laughter and play.
This is only the beginning of a much larger story of healing that can be yours. Are any of these lacking in your life? How can you step forward towards showing your nervous system more safety? What first step can you take today?
