Your Body Keeps The Score

Your skin is your scroll.

Your bones are your record.

Your cells are your confession.

You can lie to your friends.

You can fake a smile.

You can drown it in busyness or bury it in silence.

But your body never lies.

Every ache. Every rash. Every tight muscle and sleepless night—it’s speaking.

• That tight chest? Grief unspoken.

• That jaw clench? Rage suppressed.

• That gut churn? Fear you’ve refused to face.

• That fatigue? The cost of living in denial.

EMOTION IS NOT JUST ENERGY—IT’S MEMORY.

Unfelt feelings don’t disappear.

They relocate.

They embed.

They calcify in the fascia, in the nervous system, in the breath you don’t take.

Every unresolved wound becomes a whisper in your spine, a scream in your stomach, a story written in your immune system.

Pain is not the enemy—it’s a messenger.

THE BODY AS ORACLE

Your body is not betraying you.

It’s fighting to get your attention.

To tell the truth your mouth won’t say.

It doesn’t need more medication—it needs your awareness.

It doesn’t need to be silenced—it needs to be heard.

HOW TO LISTEN:

1. Get Still: Drop beneath thought. Let the body speak.

2. Ask it: Where are you holding this emotion? What do you need from me right now?

3. Feel. Don’t fix: You don’t need to change it. You need to let it be felt. Fully. Raw. Without judgment.

4. Express: Cry. Move. Shake. Breathe. Get it out of storage and into flow.

EVERY CELL IS A CHOIR

And it’s either singing in harmony or screaming in pain.

• You are not just a mind in a body.

• You are a soul writing scripture into flesh.

So choose your thoughts like prayers.

Feel your emotions like messengers.

Treat your body like the sacred vessel it is.

You don’t just carry trauma—You become the altar where it’s transfigured.

Let the body tell the truth.

Let the body finally rest.

Let the body become a temple again.

Because yes—the body keeps the score…but it also holds the key to freedom.
