The Body Kept It | Rage, Suppression & Listening to Your Body

There are things the body remembers—long after the moment has passed.Not in words,but in tension…in silence…in what was never allowed to be said.In this episode of Backbone, I share a spoken word piece titled “The Body Kept It”—inspired by sitting with the feeling of rage and noticing how it lives in the body when it isn’t expressed.This isn’t about the loud, explosive kind of anger.It’s about the quiet kind—the kind you feel rise… and learn to move away from.The kind that gets swallowed.Redirected.Stored in the body.This piece explores:suppressed emotions and unexpressed ragesomatic memory and where feelings live in the bodythe moment we learn not to say what we feeland how rage can become a signal—not something to fear, but something to listen toIf you’ve ever felt something deeply… and didn’t say it—this piece will meet you there.🎧 Best experienced with headphones. Take your time with it.
