Primal Body Wisdom: Reclaiming the Language of Instinct

Before language, before reason, before fear — there was instinct.

It lived in your bones. Your blood. The sway of your hips and the rhythm of your breath. You didn’t need to think — you felt. You didn’t analyze — you moved.

That wisdom still lives in you.

It’s the ache in your chest when something isn’t right.
The pulse of aliveness when something deeply is.

Your body speaks in subtle signals — tightening, softening, opening, withdrawing. But in a world that worships logic and obedience, we’re taught to silence that primal knowing. To sit still. Be good. Stay quiet.

And so we become strangers to our own skin.

Returning to Your Primal Body

To come home to your wildness is not to become chaotic — it’s to become honest.

Honest about what you feel. What you crave. What contracts you. What expands you. Your body is not a machine to control — she’s a compass to trust.

• Go where the heat lives.
• Notice what gives you goosebumps.
• Let your body say no before your mouth does.

Primal wisdom isn’t loud — but it is clear. It doesn’t scream. It hums. It pulses. It breathes.

You Are Not Separate from the Wild

Your body is nature. Just as the moon swells, the tide turns, the wolf howls — you shift. You burn. You bloom. You bare teeth.

Primal embodiment is about remembering that you are part of the wilderness, not separate from it. And like any wild thing, your instincts are sacred — not shameful.

Let the animal in you lead.

She remembers the way home.
