🌉 BRIDGING THE GAP –5 min Mindful Somatic Breathing Practice Episode 33: Don’t Take Anything Personally: ⁠https://youtu.be/VrSdjtMaygU?si=Y4Vl1xRajRZ2DCQJ✨ “Their story is theirs, not yours. Stay rooted in your truth.”🧠 Neuroscience of Self, Other & Regulation: When someone reacts toward us, our default mode network — the brain’s self-referential system — instantly lights up, scanning for threat or rejection.⚡ The amygdala reads tone and expression as danger signals, even when it’s not about us.🌿 But through mindful awareness, we can pause, breathe, and differentiate between our truth and their projection.This separation is not detachment — it’s clarity. Neuroplasticity teaches us that every time we unhook from someone else’s emotional wave, we strengthen pathways of self-trust and internal safety.💡 Reflection: “When I feel misunderstood or blamed, what happens in my body first? How can I pause there instead of defending?”🌬️ Somatic Grounding & Breath Practice: 🌱 Inhale: I return to myself. Exhale: I release what is not mine.🌀 You are not the storm — you are the ground beneath it.Begin by sitting tall, feet grounded, one hand on the chest and one on the lower belly.Feel the breath rise and fall beneath your palms — one representing truth, one representing safety.Notice where your body tightens when you feel judged — jaw, shoulders, chest — and gently soften that space.Imagine roots extending from your feet, anchoring you into the earth, as words or emotions move past like wind.❤️ Heart Integration & Everyday Practice🌊 When we stop taking things personally, we reclaim nervous system regulation as an act of love.💬 Others’ behavior reflects their inner landscape, not your worth.💞 Respond with boundaries and compassion, not defense.Try this micro-practice:👉 When you feel tension rise in an interaction, pause and say internally,✨ “That belongs to them. I remain here, steady in me.”Each time you do this, your brain and body learn that safety lives inside you, not in others’ approval.💭 Quote: Place a hand on your heart, breathe deeply, and affirm:✨ “I release what is not mine. I remain steady in truth and kindness.”💖 “If you keep this agreement, you can travel with your heart fully open and no one can hurt you.” — Don Miguel Ruiz#BridgingTheGap #DontTakeAnythingPersonally #Neuroplasticity #SomaticAwareness #EmotionalRegulation #HeartCenteredLiving #MindBodyHealing👉 SUBSCRIBE: Bridging the Gap (5 min Breathing Meditation)📺 YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/Mediastarllc2003🌐 CARE Website:  https://mediastarllc.wixsite.com/CARE🎧 Spotify Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/6cCOFTpc2CMOcTpQvOUjjr?si=e62a7d06283e4c3b🍎 Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/bridging-the-gap/id1833703512📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/connected_rooted🎬 TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@bridging.the_gap📘 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ConnectedAndRootedEverywhere
