What counselling training taught me about our long-term expat nervous systems.
Again, even as a shorter term expat, I am so relating to this and have noticed myself carrying it in my body. So good to give it language.
Rachel, "carrying it in my body" is such a precise way to put it. That's often where this kind of adaptation lives first, before we have any language for it at all, and regardless of timeline.
I'm really glad the words gave it somewhere to land :)
