What does “bracing” mean?
Bracing is the subtle state of being prepared - for the next problem, demand, disappointment or thing that needs your attention.
You may look calm and capable on the outside while internally you're anticipating, overthinking, holding tension or finding it difficult to fully switch off.
Over time, these patterns can become so familiar that they simply feel normal.
- Your mind stays “on” even when you're resting
- You carry tension when nothing seems wrong
- You anticipate what might happen next
