Complex trauma messes with your system. Your brain's stuck in survival mode, and your muscles are following orders.

If you're always tense, have backaches for no reason, or feel like you can't relax- it may not just be stress. It could be your bodys way of dealing with past experiences.

Imagine your brain's alarm system going off all the time, even when you're safe. It is so very exhausting.
