The Nervous System and Triggers

It Speaks in Sensations, Not Words
Your nervous system doesn’t sit you down and explain things logically.
It communicates through:
Tightness in your chest
A racing heart
Sudden irritability
Emotional flooding
Numbness or shutdown
These are not random reactions.
They are messages.
Not saying:
“You’re too much.”
But saying:
“This feels familiar.”
“This doesn’t feel safe.”
“Pay attention.”
The problem is most of us were never taught how to listen.
