“…Our greatest teacher may be our body. If we have recurring problems with health or weight, the body may be communicating that we need to attend to our healing not only on a physical level, but also on emotional, mental, or spiritual levels. For example, if we tend to push ourselves too hard, our bodies may get sick in order to force us to slow down, relax and take better care of ourselves. If we learn the lesson our bodies are trying to teach us, and are able to integrate more rest, play, emotional expression, and spiritual renewal into our lives, perhaps our bodies won’t have to get sick in order to get our attention.”
Shakti Gawain “Creating True Prosperity”
Our bodies can teach us more about ourselves than perhaps we realize, if we pay attention. Too often our attention is external rather than internal. The impulses our bodies send out can be subtle and easily go unnoticed but provide us with information about our health, emotions and overall well-being.
It seems easier to ignore the minor annoyances of our bodies as we care for others in our families, our jobs and our communities. Being in tune with our bodies allows us to feed ourselves self-respect. When we value ourselves and listen to the quiet signs available to us daily we are more valuable to both others and ourselves.
