Listen to your Body

Dr Sanjyot Pethe advocates giving your rational mind a break and tuning into your body's intelligence to transform your life
Listen to your Body

The body is my first home. For the longest time, it was a burden that I carried along. I hated it, ignored it, and wanted to change it and move out of it. It was ugly, ill, and uncomfortable, and I wanted to run away from the overwhelming anxiety, sorrow, and pain I experienced. I thought I was alone in this; then I began to see it in various forms everywhere. I saw bodies being dragged to work for long hours, bodies being ignored, people spending a whole lot of money to change their bodies, or bodies just becoming something to be lived with. Then I heard that the body has its own wisdom. Really!

This morning, I was speaking with a lady about my work, and she commented that all this is New Age stuff. I responded that my grandparents already knew this; they just did not have the language to express it. My grandfather would have a stomach upset, so he would skip a meal. My grandmother would cook and eat only what was needed. They did intermittent fasting throughout their life. It's only now that I am realising it.

The wise body
