Feeling
Body Pressure
Chest tight. Stomach in a knot. Jaw locked. Shoulders by your ears. The body has been talking for a while now, and somewhere along the way you stopped hearing. Body pressure isn’t random. It’s the unfinished feeling stored in muscle, fascia, breath. Your body is the record of every emotion that didn’t get to move when it first showed up. It holds, until it can’t. The articles below help you read the body — not to fix it, but to listen to what it has been trying to release. When you’re ready, begin a Feeling Session — palms down beside you, breath into the exact spot that’s holding the most, and let the body finally finish what it started.
