What the Body Knows
✧
The body knows
before the mind
admits it.
before the mind
admits it.
The tightness
in the chest
when something
isn't right.
in the chest
when something
isn't right.
The ease
in the shoulders
when you've finally
told the truth.
in the shoulders
when you've finally
told the truth.
The deep exhale
that comes
when you stop
fighting
what you've always
known.
that comes
when you stop
fighting
what you've always
known.
Trust the body.
It was listening
long before
you were.
long before
you were.
