Emotional Pattern Decoder
A self-guided guide designed to help you recognize, understand, and make sense of emotional reactions and recurring patterns through a nervous-system-informed lens.
This is for you if…
you notice repeating emotional reactions you don’t fully understand
certain situations or people trigger strong responses
you feel confused by your emotions rather than guided by them
you want insight without judgment or self-fixing
you’re ready to understand why you react the way you do
emotional awareness feels more supportive than suppression
What’s inside
Clear explanations of common emotional and nervous system patterns
Tools for identifying your dominant emotional loops
Guidance on linking emotions to body sensations and responses
Reflection prompts that support meaning-making without overwhelm
Language that reframes reactions as information, not flaws
How to use it
Use this guide when you feel emotionally activated, stuck in a familiar loop, or curious about your reactions. It’s designed to be revisited as patterns emerge, rather than completed in one sitting.
Next step
If decoding your emotional patterns brings up deeper questions or connections you want help understanding, your next step is a FSS Clarity Session, where we explore how emotions, nervous system states, hormones, and fascia interact in your system.
