@_meleahthompson_: We misunderstand the nervous system because we think healing should look calm. Sometimes it doesn’t. Sometimes the body trembles. Emotion rises. Muscles contract and release. Breathing changes. Tears come without a story attached. What you’re seeing here isn’t someone “losing control.” Her nervous system is moving through a powerful emotional and physiological experience while she stays present with what she’s feeling instead of immediately suppressing it. The goal isn’t to never feel activated. It’s to build the capacity to feel what moves through the body without abandoning yourself. The body doesn’t always need to be silenced. Sometimes it needs to be listened to. #thebodyknows #somaticintegration #energyhealing #reiki #nervoussystemhealing
