Today I reminded myself again that this movie isn’t for us, so I am watching other matrix movies now and then to pass the time when I need to detach from it all. Babe is up next. Innocent enough. And I love the duck. 😄
I received something in my email this morning that immediately aligned with my Truth – the difference between being an empath and being hypervigilant. There are so many buzz words that continue to spin around out there – and the term “empath” is one. I’ve seen people claim it as though they are someone special – as in really special. What if that strong ability is really just the brain being on overdrive – that hypervigilant state – where the amygdala is scanning the environment for danger. And what if being empathic is really just a human ability to hold space for another person in the way he/she needs – without losing yourself in those moments? That and being – FEELING – safe are imperative. The body will tell us. Those little signals such as feeling heat or cold, tension, tingling, pains here and there. Go within, sit with it without judgment. Be curious. And ask, “what do you need?” It’s literally like treating ourselves the same we would treat a baby in distress. It’s still a process for me – a new way of Being – to take time to be in my body and out of my cognitive space. This matrix absolutely does not support that practice so it’s something most of us have to relearn in adulthood (as I feel we come here naturally with that ability but are often dismissed as children when we say we are afraid or don’t feel well).
Anyway, things to consider. I share that at the bottom of today’s finds.

It’s still more of the same – it’s coming. Just no WHEN. More clown show movie scenes. WE HAVE IT ALL = WE HAVE IT ALL. Those files are available. Apparently, we just have to see who did the withholding of them. 🙄 Her response is not going to soothe anyone’s frustration. One can only “cry wolf” so many times before people just stop paying attention.
We’ve now found out, of course, that they were in New York. We’ve received a truckload of documents and evidence, and Kash is going to give me a deadline on when he can go through that to protect, of course, the victims of sex trafficking who are wrapped into this. He’s going to give me a deadline on when he can get this, and we will get out as much as we can, as fast as we can, to the American people because they deserve to know.
Same with January 6th. We’re all working on JFK right now. We will be working on Martin Luther King. All of these things that the President promised, we will be doing. They can try to hide documents from us, but they can’t.
It might take a little longer, but we will find them, and we will release them to the American people because it’s about transparency.

Trump drafts three-tier U.S. travel ban which now targets 43 countries | The Independent
The “red” list includes 11 countries whose citizens would be entirely forbidden from entering the United States: Afghanistan, Bhutan, Cuba, Iran, Libya, North Korea, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, Venezuela and Yemen.
Ten countries whose citizens will be limited from entering but not entirely banned, meaning they are required to have specific visas, were on the “orange” list. People of Belarus, Eritrea, Haiti, Laos, Myanmar, Pakistan, Russia, Sierra Leone, South Sudan and Turkmenistan will have to sit for in-person interviews to obtain a visa, the outlet reported.
The “yellow” list contains 22 countries, mostly African nations, that the Trump administration is giving 60 days to address its concerns over alleged “deficiencies.” If these nations don’t comply, they risk being placed on the red or orange lists, the Times reported.

This is good stuff:
Why It’s Important – Time’s singular direction has been considered a universal constant – the backdrop against which all physical processes unfold. If quantum systems can indeed experience bidirectional time flow, it challenges core assumptions about causality and the nature of reality itself. It also feeds into the theoretics behind time travel – especially is this can be replicated experimentally.I listen to a lovely self-guided meditation each night before going to sleep that guides the body and mind to heal itself. I usually fall asleep listening – but I figure much healing comes from the subconscious.
These are some of the most important words we can tell ourselves – imho – and feeeeeeeeeeeels. I would also say no breadcrumbs – as in you don’t receive their leftovers (attention, time, etc.). We’re all busy – and some of that is unnecessary busy, isn’t it? Distractions to avoid doing what is BEST for us. I’m re-examining my own priorities as I tend to do what I think I should do first – i.e. chores, etc. Switching that to “do what feels best first – chores can always get done later” which completely challenges the dynamics of my upbringing and certain relationships. Of course, I also want a life of ease – release all that was hidden that have kept us in these monkey cages and hamster wheels tired and stressed. Seriously over that sheot.
From the Newsletter “Professional Human”:
Safety, Survival, and the Hyperattuned Brain |
| From a psychological perspective, a healthy brain needs safety above all. |
| Safety—both physical and emotional—forms the foundation of a well-regulated nervous system. When a child grows up in a stable environment, they have the proper security to explore both novelty and familiarity within the context set by their caregivers. |
| This balance (novelty and familiarity) is what allows for clear thinking, emotional resilience, and sound decision-making. |
| Conversely, when emotional or physical safety is lacking, chronic stress takes over, disrupting brain function and making impulsivity, anxiety, and poor decision-making the norm rather than the exception. The disruption is not limited to behavior and emotions—it extends deep into the very structure of the brain. |
| Chronic stress and trauma can rewire the brain in ways similar to physical brain injuries. |
| Neuroimaging reveals that the networks affected in Traumatic Brain Injuries (or TBIs) in veterans and patients in intensive care units are remarkably similar to those impacted by long-term emotional trauma. Even after the physical injuries have healed, the neural networks involved in emotional regulation and autonomic fear responses continue to show similar patterns in both TBI patients and those with emotional trauma. |
Hyperattunement and Hypervigilance |
| Hyperattunement is a learned behavior. |
| When a child grows up in an unstable, unpredictable, or emotionally volatile environment, they develop an excessive focus on others as a defense mechanism. They read subtle shifts in tone, expression, and body language—constantly monitoring those around them to maintain secure attachment. |
| Over time, this hyperattunement becomes more than just a habit—it becomes a way of life. As the nervous system adapts to unpredictability, attunement gradually shifts into vigilance, and eventually, hypervigilance. |
| With hypervigilance, the amygdala—your brain’s built-in alarm system—is on high alert. A simple conversation can feel like walking on a tightrope and a subtle shift in someone’s tone can send your body into fight, flight, freeze, or fawn before you even understand what happened. |
| Ever walked into a room and immediately felt tension in the air, even before anyone says anything? Maybe you notice subtle shifts in breathing, micro-expressions, or changes in someone’s posture. |
| This is hyperattunement in action, a deeply ingrained survival mechanism. |
Hyperattunement vs. True Empathy |
| Many people who developed hyperattunement as children are often labeled as “empaths” in adulthood, but this is a misconception. |
| The difference is crucial—while hyperattunement can feel emotionally rewarding, it’s not true empathy. True empathy is rooted in differentiation, the ability to maintain a clear sense of self while still being attuned to the emotions of others. |
| This lack of differentiation can often be felt in our relationships, where we become so absorbed in others’ emotional states that we lose sight of our own. |
| Dr. Daniel Siegel, a leading expert in interpersonal neurobiology, explains: “If you are excessively focused on others’ emotions, you may lose touch with your own internal world, leading to anxiety, confusion, and emotional exhaustion.” |
| The cost of hyperattunement—without the grounding power of differentiation—is a feeling of being disconnected from your true self. |
| It manifests in distinct and harmful relationship patterns: |
|
| These patterns tend to reinforce the original wound, perpetuating cycles that are difficult to break without self-awareness and intentional change. |
| For example, you might feel validated when others are pleased with your efforts (people-pleasing), but this only deepens the emptiness when the approval fades. The emotional exhaustion from constantly attending to others can lead to burnout, leaving you incapable of tending to your own needs. |
| Often, these patterns run on autopilot—we don’t even realize we’re trapped in them until we step back and recognize the toll they’ve taken on our relationships and sense of self. |
Sympathetic Overload: When Your Mind and Body Won’t Shut Off |
| Your sympathetic nervous system is designed for short bursts of activation—like running from danger. But with hypervigilance and hyperattunement, it stays stuck in overdrive, constantly flooding your body with cortisol and adrenaline. |
| This prolonged activation leads to sympathetic overload, where the body struggles to return to a state of rest. |
| As the body becomes trapped in a cycle of stress and tension, this process reveals a deeper connection between the mind and the body. |
| The unprocessed fears and emotions that the brain can’t address end up manifesting in the body, making these tensions not just a physical inconvenience, but a powerful signal of emotional distress. |
Mind Into Matter: How Trauma Becomes Physical Symptoms |
| In mental health spaces, it’s very common for patients to somaticize their challenges. |
| Somaticization means feeling mental struggles as physical sensations—it’s when psychological distress manifests in the body because the mind’s unprocessed emotions need a way to express themselves. |
| On the low end of the spectrum, an anxious person might notice their hands tighten, shake, or constrict. On the high end, an individual with a deep subconscious fear of death (often referred to in evolutionary psychology as the survival instinct) might constantly feel diseased or unwell, even without physical illness. |
| On a much deeper level, the body might be free of disease, yet due to the chronic stress of somaticization, it may eventually adopt various physical challenges. |
|
| I want to clarify that somaticization is not inherently negative. |
| In fact, it serves a purpose. It can pull us deeper into ourselves, helping to bypass the primitive mental defenses that shield us from truly experiencing life. Dissociation and somaticization are two ends of the same spectrum—while dissociation involves disconnection from the body, somaticization involves a heightened connection to physical sensations as a way of coping with emotional distress. |
Reclaiming Safety: The Path to Health |
| The path to healing begins with awareness. |
| Recognizing hyperattunement and hypervigilance as learned adaptations, rather than inherent personality traits, creates space for change. These patterns were once necessary for survival, but your nervous system can learn new ways of responding. |
| Practical steps to reclaim safety include: |
|
| Remember that healing isn’t linear—some days will feel like progress, others like regression. This is normal and part of the process. |
Balancing Sensing with Structure |
| To create lasting change, we need to balance the formless (feelings, sensations, and experiences) with form (ritual, structure). This creates the necessary boundaries for neurological rewiring. |
| This means integrating both top-down and bottom-up approaches: |
| Top-down approaches work from the mind to the body: |
|
| Bottom-up approaches work from the body to the mind: |
|
| True healing involves recalibrating the nervous system to recognize genuine safety, allowing hypervigilance to soften into appropriate awareness. |
| The goal isn’t to lose empathy, but to develop it authentically—from a place of choice rather than survival. With persistence and support, the body can remember what it’s like to feel truly safe. |
From Survival to Connection: Rediscovering True Attunement |
| We live in a relational world where reciprocity is a rule in nature. |
| In order to step into our true human state—one that is constantly connecting, growing, evolving, and creating—we need to be able to connect deeply to another person. |
| True relationship, becomes possible only when we first attune to ourselves. From this foundation of safety, we can engage with others not from hypervigilance or hyperattunment, but from genuine presence. |
| This inner attunement creates a foundation for deeper healing. Tthe most profound healing happens when we develop a new relationship with our own bodies. By returning to the body—the very place where our relational wounds are stored—we can create a new template for connection. |
| The body knows what safety feels like, even if the mind has forgotten. By listening to our bodies with compassion rather than hypervigilance, we begin to heal the very pathways that were once overloaded by stress and fear. |
| In a world racing toward technological advances and artificial intelligence, our most important evolution remains the one happening within: |
| The journey from survival response to conscious choice, from hyperattunement to true connection. |
| With love and healing, |
