Emotional Shock & Nervous System Recovery
Discover how emotional shock impacts your nervous system and how to recover.
The Sense of Landing
Arrival does not announce itself.
It feels more like landing than reaching —
quiet, ordinary, and unremarkable.
Nothing has been achieved,
and nothing needs to be acknowledged.
The body simply comes to rest
where it already is.
This moment does not seal anything
or mark completion.
It allows landing to exist
without turning it into a milestone.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know when I've "arrived" in a state of rest?
This is the Sense of Landing. In this model, arrival isn't a "conclusion" you reach; it’s a lack of effort. You haven't "arrived" because you did something right; you've arrived because you stopped trying to be somewhere else. Naming this "landing" helps your Reward system stop searching for a destination. You are simply "here," and that is the "done" signal.
Do I need to feel a specific way to have "landed"?
No. In the Meaning Density Model™, landing is a structural fact, not an emotional one. If your body is in the chair and you aren't trying to leave, you have landed. By decoupling "arrival" from "intensity," you allow your system to settle into reality rather than chasing a "feeling" of peace, which is much more stable and sustainable.
