Episode 43: The Cost of Constant Noticing (Series 8: The Unheard Story of the Body)

When your body feels unpredictable, it makes sense that your attention follows. In this episode, we talk about what happens when awareness turns into vigilance—when tracking symptoms, scanning for changes, and trying to stay ahead of your body becomes its own kind of exhaustion. We explore the nervous system cost of constant monitoring, why the brain leans toward control when things feel uncertain, and how to begin relating to your body with more steadiness and less pressure.
