The Illusion of Safety: Why You Stop Trusting Yourself

Align with Veronica Season 2 Episode 51

When trusting yourself feels impossible, it’s usually because you’ve been taught to hand your safety... your instincts, your inner knowing — over to someone or something else.

But what happens when the safety we’re told to rely on keeps us disconnected from the one place real safety actually lives: the nervous system?

In this episode, we explore how outsourcing your protection to external systems  (surveillance, law enforcement, institutional authority, or even soft trauma language) can leave your nervous system dysregulated, overwhelmed, and unable to complete its natural survival responses.

This episode is an invitation to reclaim the inner source of safety that has always been yours, and toward the end, I guide you through a 4-minute grounding meditation to help your nervous system settle, reconnect, and return to itself.

Real safety begins within. And when you reclaim that, everything changes.

What part of your nervous system do you feel most disconnected from (your instinct, your grounding, or your sense of agency)

Share below. I’d love to hear your reflections after this episode. 🖤
