Definition
Fascial memory treats connective-tissue load as stored signal — posture, tension, and restriction as data, not character defect.
Origin
Somatic and fascia-informed practice (see Autonomous Intelligence of the Body) — body intelligence beyond head-only models.
Mechanism
Chronic bracing can persist after the narrative “resolves.” Interoceptive and movement reps may access what verbal analysis alone does not — titrate dose to avoid flood.
Applications
When insight is high but body still locks, add sensation-first reps before more strategy. Pair Interoception.
