Do you ever wonder why your body reacts before your mind catches up? Or why you sometimes feel anxious or tense — even when “nothing’s wrong”?
In this episode of SelfKind, join me, Erica Webb (registered counsellor, somatic exercise coach, and fellow Highly Sensitive Person (HSP)) as I share a powerful analogy that will change the way you think about your mind-body connection.
💡 You’ll discover:
🚨 Why your nervous system acts like a first responder
🔍 How your mind tries to make sense of your body’s reactions
👀 The link between self-blame, anxiety, and nervous system responses
🩷 Simple ways to bring curiosity and compassion into moments of stress
If you’ve ever thought, “What’s wrong with me?” when your body feels on high alert, this episode will help you understand that your body is always trying to protect you — and that compassion is your most powerful tool for change.
