Why Your Body Braces (and the 30-Second Interrupt)
Thu Feb 05 2026
Your body doesn’t brace to annoy you. It braces to protect you. In this episode I break down why it happens and give you a 30-second interrupt to soften fast.
We explore bracing as a nervous system safety strategy, common ‘performing calm’ signals (jaw, breath, shoulders), and a quick interrupt practice you can do in real life.
