✨ The Pause That Helped Me Hear My Heart

Let me tell you something I’ve learned about awareness...

It doesn’t always arrive as a thought.
Sometimes, it’s a song.
A sensation.
A soft moment that moves through your chest before your mind can make sense of it.

💛 This week’s episode is an invitation to explore what happens when you pause not to think — but to feel.

Because when we tune into the body, the heart often whispers what the mind has been trying to override.

🧠 The Science Behind the Softness

Dr. Bessel van der Kolk, in The Body Keeps the Score, offers powerful insights into how trauma is stored — not as a narrative, but as a sensory imprint.

He explains how trauma often lives on through sensations, emotions, posture, and nervous system patterns — even long after the story fades.

Likewise, the HeartMath Institute teaches that the heart isn’t just a pump — it’s a sensory organ that communicates with the brain, shaping how we think, feel, and heal.

💡 Lately, I’ve been exploring:

🌀 Embodied Awareness​
Pausing to check in with my breath, body, and heart — without needing to “fix” anything.

💓 Heart Resonance​
Letting emotions move through me as energy — not enemies.

📿 Somatic Anchors​
Grounding into rituals like slow walks, body scans, and silence.

🎧 This Week on the Pause With Purpose Series

Even if you don’t tune in today, here’s your golden takeaway:

Let’s keep pausing,
Keep listening,
And keep coming back home —
To your breath. To your body. To your heart.
