Healing Notes

It eases as you build relationships where being yourself is what's wanted — not what's tolerated.

Anger heals when it's felt, named, and translated into a clear, non-harmful no.

Hard to Go Places

The places the body has been avoiding — the feelings, truths, or moments it has been organised to keep at a distance.

  • Fear of Hunger / Scarcity Eating

    Feeling hunger, emptiness, or scarcity without panic. Scarcity eating may provide fullness, control, protection, preparation, comfort, or a way to avoid feeling deprived, unsupported, abandoned, or unsafe.

  • Rejection

    Risking being seen and possibly not chosen.

  • Anger

    Letting it exist in your body without acting it out or shutting it down.
