#14: What Your Body Remembers
Reclaiming Presence in a World That Forgot
What does it really mean to be natural?
Not what’s familiar. Not what’s been normalized.
But what your body remembers… instinctively, intuitively, without needing permission.
In this deeply reflective episode, we explore how modern life has confused performance for presence and productivity for worth.
We unpack the hidden cost of disconnection and offer a somatic pause to begin returning to the rhythm beneath the noise… the part of you that was never lost, only covered. You’ll hear a story about the “tree in the container,” a metaphor for survival-based adaptation, and how healing is not about undoing the past but re-rooting into truth.
This episode includes:
A reflection on what it means to be natural
The difference between normalization and alignment
A somatic pause to return to the body’s intelligence
Why “stillness” isn’t an escape, but a homecoming
Let this be an invitation, not to become someone new, but to remember who you are underneath the performance.
If this spoke to something inside you, share it with someone who might need to hear it.
