      It’s not possible to not have “locational feelings” because they are physically located in your body.

      But you probably have trauma that would rather you die than feel them. So you need someone who can help you at a high level.

      It made more sense to me once I realised I was muscle guarding. The body reacts to emotions as much as you do. For example, I used to be hunched a lot and have terrible posture because I didn’t feel tall. So I worked on allowing myself to slowly stretch out and be tall. There were various points in my body I was holding unnecessary tension, and I felt much better once I relaxed them and let go of my past.

      There was no emotional release or crying, but it made more sense from that perspective. “The body keeps the score” and all that
