The most beautiful part of healing isn’t becoming someone new—it’s meeting the version of yourself that was there all along, just waiting for your nervous system to feel safe enough to come out. Has this been true for you?? When your nervous system has been in a prolonged state of stress, anxiety, trauma, or burnout, your brain prioritizes survival over self-expression. You may notice that you become:
* More irritable or emotionally reactive.
* Less playful or creative.
* Withdrawn from others.
* Less motivated
* More forgetful or indecisive.
