Why matching matters

Three nervous-system states, not one.

Fight/flight (racing heart, energy up). Freeze (shutdown, low energy, blank). Safe/social (what you want to return to). A technique that moves you down from fight/flight makes freeze worse. One that moves you up from freeze spikes anxiety if you're already activated. Notice the direction. Then pick the reset that moves you toward safe-social — not away from it.

"Every app I tried wanted me to sign up, pick goals, sit through onboarding."
