Great post! I'm a reflector, too, and feel many similarities as you do. Loved how you weaved in the importance of the nervous system. This is something I've been contemplating a lot recently. Your observations about humanity feeling like we're all performing is spot on. It reminds me of a passage I recently read that touched on our 21st century threat is staying relevant and not being disposed of.
i love that this resonated. especially the part about the nervous system. i’ve been feeling how everything comes back to it lately… not just healing, but how we relate, create, even stay open.
and yes, the performing thing. like this quiet fear of being forgotten or left behind if we stop producing or proving. that passage you read sounds so spot on too.
I felt every ounce of these words in my body without my mind trying to dissect them and there is such liberation in that 🤍
when something holds our breath without triggering the mind, its the most beautiful thing! feels like a gift <3

thank you for sharing with me :)
The process of someone ungluing themselves from the projection they think they need to stick to is such a powerful image. 😍 beautifully written.
thank you, Vic! so very kind 🥲
