The Body’s Truth

In the final analysis, we can control only ourselves. But we are often dismayed at our inability to master even this. What prevents us?

When we feel out of control, it is usually because there is a conflict between what we think and what we feel. Our feelings may scream one thing while our minds demand something else. But our bodies, which are the storage units for our feelings, simply cannot lie.

Whatever we feel in our bodies is our truth.

~ Judith Lasater

Take time to tune in to your body today. Listen to its message without judging it or medicating away any feeling of discomfort.

Be compassionate as you discover your truth.

Namaste

    Good reminder, Val. I always listen to my body . . . especially when it says FEED ME! 😀

    Since we know our bodies the best, we’d be wise to listen. ❤

      So true Jill. We look to others to tell us and guide us … when all we have to do is to look and sense inwards. Listening in is a powerful message. Thanks for bringing that here 💕

    Great quote. Whenever I get sick and always wonder what I am upset about. There is always a connection.

    Val it feels good to read you inspiring posts after long. Judith Lasater words are true. Yet I do believe the mind has the inherent power of ‘hope and will’ to lift the body up and out of its limitations.

    Cheers and regards 🌹
