What healing requires

Truths that help you keep going

Protecting your peace

Choosing peace sometimes means choosing solitude. Not everyone will understand your boundaries. That's okay.

The nervous system knows

If you're waiting for safety to fall apart, your nervous system was trained for chaos. Peace feels unfamiliar at first.

Sensitivity is wisdom

You developed sensitivity to survive impossible environments. It's not a flaw—it's intelligence.

Rest is necessary

You were taught your worth comes from doing. Rest feels like failure, but your existence is enough without productivity.

Anxiety protects

That hyper-vigilance kept you safe once. Thank it. Then let it know the danger has passed.

Guilt is not truth

Feeling guilty for setting boundaries, for being different, for resting—that guilt was taught to you. It's not who you are.
