Understand what determines your stress-breaking point.

Understand why self-righteousness often hides insecurity and emotional fear.
Your body is "Carrying Unnamed Alerts." In the Meaning Density Model™, the Safety system communicates through somatic pressure long before the Narrative system can find the words. These are "Pre-Language Signals." Your system has detected a "Meaning Deficit" or a "Loop Mismatch" in your environment, and it is holding the alert in your body to keep you vigilant.
Respect the signal without demanding a label. Treat the "knot" like a technical dashboard light. Say: "My system has a signal active." By not forcing a "Why," you avoid the Analysis Loop. In DojoWell, we believe that providing the body with "Technical Respect"—acknowledging the physical sensation as a valid data point—often allows the alert to "land" and the pressure to soften.
