Being Held Versus Holding on🙏

from The Remembering · host Cynthia Juhre

Being Held vs HoldingMany of us learned how to hold very early.Emotions. Families. Systems. Other people’s pain.Holding became how we stayed safe.How we belonged.How we survived.But when the body finally begins to release that role, being held can feel unfamiliar — even uncomfortable. Softer doesn’t always feel easier at first.In this short, somatic follow-up, I speak to the quiet transition from holding everything together to allowing support to meet the body instead. Not as an idea, but as a lived reorganization.If your body feels tender, sore, or strangely vulnerable right now, you’re not doing anything wrong. You may be learning a new intelligence — one where you no longer have to brace.You don’t need to fix anything while listening.Even noticing is enough.⸻✨ If this offering supported you and you feel called to reciprocate:Venmo: @Cynthia-JuhreYour support helps keep this work unforced, spacious, and freely shared.#TheRememberingPodcast#BeingHeld#HoldingAndLettingGo#SomaticHealing#NervousSystemRegulation#HypervigilanceHealing#EmbodiedPresence#TraumaInformedCare#GentleHealing#RestAsMedicine#BodyWisdom#ListeningAsMedicine#SafetyInTheBody#SomaticAwareness#EmbodiedRest
