Tip From a Somatic Therapist

 

We’re quick to blame ourselves when we can’t focus, calling it lazy, unmotivated, or a lack of willpower.

But what if distraction is actually a signal, not a flaw?

When your nervous system is in survival mode, staying focused can feel unsafe.

Distraction becomes a coping tool, your body’s way of saying, “This is too much right now.”

What if you approached that with compassion instead of criticism?

You’re not broken. You’re protecting yourself.

And with support, regulation, and somatic tools, you can gently shift from surviving to safe and focused.💛
