The Body's Own Wisdom

La sabiduría propia del cuerpo

A brief exchange about allowing the body's automatic responses to move and heal, rather than endlessly talking about them.

The Body's Own Wisdom

A brief exchange about allowing the body's automatic responses to move and heal, rather than endlessly talking about them.

That's exactly what I've been picturing: some kind of guide on connecting with whatever these automatic responses are. It doesn't help to talk and talk about them. I could talk until I turn blue. I'm really good at it, but I don't want to be good at it. I just want to heal.

Yes. The more you're able to be with what comes up and bring it into the body, the more the body's own wisdom takes over. It will learn to let those currents, all those sensations, feelings, and emotions, move through. Then the muscles, the neurons, the nervous system will adapt. They will reconnect where they previously needed to be disconnected.
