Fight/Flight/Freeze vs. Creativity
Problem-Solving & Connection
When your brain shifts into fight, flight, or freeze, it isn’t trying to hurt you — it’s trying to protect you.

Learning to recognize when you’re in survival mode helps you gently guide your mind back to presence, safety, and connection — where inspiration and solutions actually live.
