Nervous System Regulation & the Depth of Holistic Healing Trauma isn’t just a story we carry in our minds—it’s something our bodies hold onto, often for years. As a healer, I had already spent several years working through fear, shame, and guilt—doing the deep inner work, releasing layer after layer.

But what I didn’t realize was how much of it was still embedded in the fabric of my body—stored in my fascia, my muscles, even my organs.

This wasn’t new work—it was deeper work. The kind that forces you to feel everything you thought you already healed. My body had become so constricted that it felt like it was slowly squeezing me to death. I couldn’t hold onto it any longer. Releasing these buried emotions has been a raw, painful, and powerful process.

A trial of letting go over and over again. But it’s also been a path to freedom. Through nervous system regulation and somatic healing, I’ve learned how to finally create space—space to breathe, to feel safe, and to come home to my body in a way I never had before.

This work is a reminder that healing isn’t linear. It’s layered. And every layer matters.
