Self abandonment is not just a mindset. It lives in your body.
When you override what you feel β when you talk yourself out of your own knowing β your nervous system registers that as a threat.
Your body tenses.
Your breath shallows.
Your chest tightens.
Over time repeated self abandonment actually rewires your stress response.
Your body learns to distrust its own signals because you keep overriding them.
This is why building self trust isn't just emotional work. It's biological work.
Every time you honor what you feel β every time you choose your own knowing over someone else's opinion β you're literally retraining your nervous system to feel safe trusting itself.
Self trust is not a mindset shift. It's a body based practice.
