Stored Stress Is Not a Story

The body completes cycles.

Activation. Response. Resolution.

But sometimes resolution is terrupted.

Stress that does not gully discharge can linger.

That lingering activations is not a personality trait.

It is not Identity. It is not destiny.

The body can hold incomplete stress cycles.

And the body can also settle them.

What moves can settle. 1/10/26
