Trust Your Gut
Listen to your gut; it will always have your back.
Many ancient cultures, notably in Asia, have called the belly the “second brain” and the “second heart” because it is so sensitive to our thoughts, emotions, and lifestyles. It holds much wisdom and awareness. We have many phrases in our culture that reflect this…
“Butterflies in my stomach”
“I can’t stomach this.”
“My gut is telling me…”
As is often the case, modern science is catching up with this folk knowledge. The new field of neurogastroenterology reflects this shift in that it acknowledges its significance. It and other sciences are recognizing how much the health of our bellies impact our mental states as well as many diseases in our bodies.
Sacred Body: Saving Ourselves
Our bodies are a sacred gift that, when cared for, are a vital part of our ability to live life to the fullest and be our truest selves. The body has great intelligence and is capable of profound healing and amazing feats as well as the little things that give us so much pleasure. It will also tell us when something is wrong.
Our job is to listen and respond accordingly.
Developing this relationship with our bodies is a skill that takes practice and support to develop because we are generally taught to do the opposite.
I find that one of the greatest challenges for us as women is valuing ourselves enough to focus our attention upon our own needs to an effective level.
