Body sensations as triggers and signals

• Card 1

  The body often registers a trigger before conscious awareness does. Learning to notice physical sensations can give you an earlier warning than waiting for a thought or a feeling to fully form.

• Card 2

  Common body signals

  • A tightening in the chest or throat
  • Shallow or held breath
  • A racing or pounding heart
  • Clenched jaw, fists, or shoulders
  • A hollow or unsettled feeling in the stomach
  • Sudden heat, cold, or a flushed feeling

  Noticing these signals is not about controlling them instantly — it's about building familiarity, so they become useful information rather than a surprise.
