@yourbodyremembers: Loss of appetite somatically connects to the nervous system being stuck in survival mode — when the body is bracing for fight or flight, digestion shuts down because it’s not a priority. Hunger disappears because the system is too busy scanning for threat. It also shows up during grief, depression, and emotional overwhelm, when the life force itself feels diminished and appetite simply follows. But the deepest root on this page is the one that hits hardest: not trusting life. Sometimes appetite disappears because something deeper has shut down — a refusal to receive, to take in, to let life nourish you at all. Protecting yourself by not needing anything. The reframe is so tender and so necessary: you are allowed to need. You are allowed to be nourished. Not in spite of stress, but especially during it. “We accept the love we think we deserve.” What threat is your body responding to? #lossofappetite #undereating #somatichealing #nervoussystemregulation #emotionalroots
