The body heals last

We often believe that once we understand something—once we’ve analyzed it, named it, forgiven it—healing is complete.
But the body keeps its own timeline.

Emotional patterns settle in our muscles, our breath, our posture.
Stress becomes habits.
Fear becomes contraction.
Disappointment becomes weight that we carry without noticing.

The mind heals first, because it can think its way through.
The heart heals slowly, because it feels its way through.
But the body… the body heals last.

It needs repetition.
It needs safety.
It needs softness.
It needs evidence that life is different now.

This is why you may feel tired after breakthroughs, or why old emotions rise when you finally relax.
It is simply your body catching up with the truth your mind already knows.

Be patient with your physical self.
It is not holding you back—
it is holding your history.

And it will release it, one layer at a time.
