For a long time, I believed I was shattered. That the anxiety, the exhaustion, the moments of shutdown meant something inside me was irreparably damaged. That my nervous system, constantly on edge, was beyond fixing. That the weight I carried in my chest, the random tears, the unexplained fear… were proof that I was broken. But then I learned about Kintsugi. An ancient Japanese art form where broken pottery is not discarded, but carefully restored—each crack filled with gold, making the piece even more beautiful than before. It doesn’t hide the fractures. It doesn’t erase them. It honors them. And I realized… healing my nervous system wasn’t about getting rid of the parts of me that had been hurt. It was about integrating them. It was about learning that my body—no matter how dysregulated, how reactive, how exhausted—was not broken. It was doing its best to protect me in the only way it knew how. My nervous system wasn’t failing me. It was calling for healing. Like Kintsugi, the cracks weren’t the end of my story. They were an invitation to rebuild. To gently piece myself back together, to let the gold of healing fill in the spaces where trauma once lived, to emerge not despite my past, but stronger because of it. This is exactly what Neurotoned helped me do. Healing is not about erasing what happened to you. It’s about reclaiming yourself—piece by piece, breath by breath. Your nervous system can be soothed. Your vagus nerve can be regulated. Your body can feel safe again. And when it does? You won’t just be whole. You’ll be golden. ✨ You were never broken. You were becoming. ✨
