[#260] Your Tight Chest Isn't Anxiety, It's Your Body Screaming What Your Ego Won't Admit (Energy Alignment For Entrepreneurs)
Thu Feb 05 2026
The body keeps score.
But the spirit writes the ledger.
And your nervous system is holding trauma your mind forgot.
You've had memories blocked for years—maybe 20 years—then suddenly vivid recollection returns. Taste, smell, light, sound, clothing, all the details. That's trauma stored in your fascia, muscles, nervous system that your ego couldn't tolerate. Talk therapy can't reach what stretching and breathwork access. Meditation accesses the mind, but movement accesses the truth. Don't stretch on a full stomach—all your energy is processing food, can't release what's trapped.
I enjoy coffee. Great taste, mental clarity. But my gut screams no. You pay attention to these feelings your ego ignores. Physical hoarding parallels unconscious trauma storage. Get with it or get dragged by it—your consciousness is moving and you have a choice. You are not here to be understood. You're here to understand. Look at the book cover but don't judge the entire book. Can you look without judgment? Then you're like the owl. The earthquake is here, it's happening, you'll feel it.
This episode reveals why stretching/breathwork access stored trauma talk therapy can't reach, how tight chest and shallow breathing are your body's language, and the practice of somatic release. You cannot think your way out of stored trauma. Listen if you're ready to move, stretch, breathe, and feel your way to freedom.
New episodes out every Monday and Thursday at 10 AM Eastern Time
