Your body never learned that it’s safe to stop.

If slowing down makes you restless, guilty or strangely anxious, nothing is wrong with you. Somewhere along the way you learned that being useful, alert or busy kept you safe, loved or out of trouble, so your body treats rest as a risk. This isn’t laziness or a lack of discipline. It’s an old protection that never got the message that it can stand down. These sessions teach your nervous system, slowly and safely, that you are allowed to land.
