FEEL — What surfaced - Tightness in the chest - Urgency to check, scroll, watch, eat more - Anxiety paired with motion: “Just do something” - A subtle restlessness when stillness was required You didn’t numb it. You noticed it. FRAME — Name what it actually was - Anxiety is sensation, not authority - Compulsion is urgency without truth - The impulse wasn’t hunger, boredom, or need - It was a learned reflex seeking relief “Cravings whisper. Compulsions insist.” That framing alone weakened its grip. FACE — What you stayed with - The automatic swiping motion on your phone - The urge to open YouTube or social apps - The pull to eat again after breaking the fast - The familiar story: “Just a little more” You didn’t suppress. You didn’t argue. You stayed present. FORGE — The aligned action - You chose non-reaction - You acknowledged the urge without obeying it - You said, simply:“I hear you — we’re not doing that.” - You rested instead of numbing - You stayed engaged with your family instead of escaping That’s sovereignty.
