Ever wonder why you turn into a statue when something scares you? It’s all thanks to the ‘freeze’ in the classic ‘fight, flight, or freeze’ response. When faced with danger, your brain goes into overdrive, thinking, 'Should I run? Should I fight? Or should I just... stop moving?' 

Freezing is your body’s way of playing hide-and-seek with danger, making you less noticeable to a potential threat. It’s an ancient survival trick, like a deer caught in headlights, except it’s your brain saying, 'Wait, let's figure this out before making any sudden moves.' Sometimes, staying still feels like the safest bet."
