Lesson Overview

16.19 – Teaching Your Body That You’re Safe: When your body has experienced prolonged stress, it can forget what calm feels like. Teaching it safety again requires slow, consistent practice. Start with gentle breathing, soft stretches, and mindful noticing of your surroundings. Every time you comfort your body instead of pushing through stress, you rewire your nervous system to trust peace. Saying kind affirmations, listening to calming sounds, or wrapping yourself in warmth all signal safety. Over time, your body begins to believe it’s okay to relax. This shift reduces panic responses and restores balance to your emotions. Teaching your body safety isn’t instant—it’s a daily relationship between your mind and nervous system. The goal isn’t perfection but progress: shorter recovery times, fewer spikes of anxiety, and greater moments of rest. Eventually, calm no longer feels foreign; it becomes your natural state. You begin living from safety instead of survival, turning regulation into your default rhythm.
