Body Pattern · Hot / Damp / Tense
You run hot, hold fluid, and clench tight. Pressure builds with no release valve.
You carry heat and moisture in your system, but you also carry significant tension. Your body generates warmth, retains fluid, and holds everything tight. Heat trapped under tension, inflammation that cannot resolve, and a system that builds pressure until it erupts. You tend to be intense, focused, and powerful.
